Bob,
You probably know of the site below already, but I thought I'd point it out just in case.

Perhaps not that good photos of the SS-N-14, but may help anyway?

Is a great shot and with what I will send should be enough for most scales.

Can you also do a comparison to the Frunze/Adm.Lazarev? It's possible that they merely used the Frunze parts and put most of them in the Kirov kit.

Curses, that is most unfortunate.

Trumpeter has posted pics of their Adm. Lazarev/Frunze - with the changes to the kit parts to reflect the different fit, there may be a chance that they will have corrected the dual-hatch problem! We can hope :)

There should also be a few shots of the kit contents above the main box art picture - can you see those?

All right, thanks! If the radar fit is the only problem, it should be easy enough to fix with GMM's set's extra radars.

However, I guess I should wait for their Pyotr Velikiy to come out, as that's the one I really prefer, hehe.

Just a guess, but they look like satellite tracking communications antennas. The location would give a good coverage.
