Varyag (Old - Red Ukraine) was the third ship of the Sława class (another definition: Project 1164). Sława -class ships are primarily designed and built as ships for resisting surface and underwater targets, but significantly with aircraft defense capabilities. They were built in almost parallel to cruisers, a much larger Kirov -class. A characteristic feature of these ships is the presence of anti -ship missiles on the sides of the superstructure. Red Ukraine was appointed to the Pacific Ocean fleet shortly after he was put into service, where he participated in many exercises. In 1992 he joined the Russian fleet and his name was changed to Varyag four years later. The unit represented the Russian flag several times on the occasion of various anniversary and events. Varyag, who was in the Mediterranean in 2013, was about to return to this region in 2016, and became a key ship for Russian troops operating in Syria.
