I found a website that has some useful drawings and photos I think it might be enough to build a pretty good model of this ship.

Interestingly, I am planning the same. I have projects for Moskva and Kiev classes, if only I can get decent plans.

cheers

Hi, I’m reaching out to Dave, don’t know if you still look at this post but I wanted to find out if you still have the builders drawings for the Moskva, I’m planing a 1/350 scale scratch build.

Dave I was just going over some old posts I collected and forgot all about this one.
A question for you, do you have any more pictures of your Moskva? If so could you post a few to show of your model please.
Do you still have a set of plans for her also?

Hi Mick The body plan seems to be the same as the one I have . Moskva has that unusual hull form aft with the pronounced overhang to the deck edge. There were a number of aspects of the build that where difficult , the stern beneath the flight deck and VDS deploying recess in particular .

Hi Mick This is part of the drawing I used. at 1:100 scale, reduced to 1:128
Only wish I had a drawing as good as this for Kiev!!

Plans like this, is this accurate to your model or did you have better drawings?

Just by way of general interest one of the reasons I built a 1:128 scale
scratch built working model of the Moskva was just that it was so unusual
and to my knowledge { at the time of build} has not been attempted in
large scale working form . Moskva and Leningrad where not graceful ships
like so many Soviet warships of the period but striking in appearance non
the less . The drawings used initially was some what basic but as I was
approaching the last part of the build I managed to locate a set of builders
drawings which where an eye opener . Here is the result of the effort .

According to Rajen's List, Aurora made one in 1/600 scale: http://www.quuxuum.org/rajens_list/ship ... roraMoscow

I have to pipe in here because I seem to remember another company,s version of this ship.Am I mistaken or didn,t AURORA do a MOSKVA(MOSCOW) in a scale close to 1/400? I seem to remember building one and thinking at the time(She is unusual and in her own way quite beautiful as warships go.)Am I right or just dreaming again??? commodore4

The Airfix/MPC kit is a mess, but as already mentioned, with WEM PE, it can look good. Still not really good decals to help it, but it's there. Kudos to you folks that build in 1/700. I just can't do it. I'm far too clumsy for those tiny bits.

I built Combrig 1:700 Moskva VTOL some time ago. Kit is very old and I put a lot of effort into it, lots of sanding and putty. http://www.modelshipgallery.com/gallery/dio/ru/sbg-700-az/az-index.html

As for Arifix. It is horrible if built out of the box. But if you'll find WEM 1/600 Moskva PE - it is possible to build good looking model if you OK with odd scales.

I saw Airfix's 1/600 Moskva helo carrier on the shelves of one of my local hobby shops, and I was wondering if I should pick it up, or not bother. Is there another kit (in 1/700, preferably) of the Moskva class out there?
