Lovely work, 16 Kh-35s on the Project 2034 surely pack a punch. :)
The placement of the MR-123 Bass Tilt on the mainmast of 2034.1 looks interesting.

In real life, some Pr.1241 Molniya have 16 Kh-35. Vietnam has this version, probably other export customers also.

Thanks! As Odysseus mentioned, 16 Urans happened IRL on upgraded Nanuchka and Tarantul corvettes, as well as the BPS-500 built in Vietnam, all of which have a lower displacement than what I anticipate for the Pr.2034.
But yes, a huge wallop as long as you're not up against a target that can defend against several Harpoon-class missiles...

The displaced Bass Tilt on the Pr.2034.1 is a compromise due to the Plank Shave being replaced by the taller and heavier Band Stand. Losing some OTH targeting range takes a backseat when compared to compromising an already shaky seakeeping. ;)

Only some Tarantul/Molniya had 16 Kh-35, here is the link for Vietnamese Navy:

BPS-500 has 8 Kh-35.

That's right, I had written down the BPS-500 with 4 Uran launchers for some reason, should have checked at least one actual picture before speaking nonsense like that ;).
That being said, IRL example show indeed that 16 Urans on a 500-ton MRK/BRKA is feasible.

And here is a little something for all of you waiting for more technical details.
I'm starting the weapons sheets where they have first being requested, on the 400mm torpedoes for the coastal submarines.

More to follow. Enjoy!
