SA-N-9 (battlecruiser Frunze, 1987)

description

Summary

A port view of the bow of the Soviet nuclear-powered guided missile cruiser FRUNZE as a missile is launched from the SA-N-9 vertical missile launcher in the Baltic Sea.
Deutsch: Der sowjetische atomgetriebene Lenkwaffenkreuzer Michail Frunse beim Abfeuern zweier, aus vertikalen Raketenbehältern gestarteter, SA-N-9-Flugabwehrraketen.

The factual accuracy of this description or the file name is disputed.
Reason: The Frunze has not been fitted with SA-N-9, and moreover, their launchers were supposed to be fitted at the end of raised forecastle, not behind RBU rocket depth charges launchers. Possibly it is a launch from PK-2 decoy launcher.
