1 Kusnetsov class aircraft carrier
1 more Slava class missile cruiser
2 more Udaloy anti-submarine ships
3 Sovremenny class destroyers
1 Kashin class frigate
Several Nanchuka and Tarantul class missile corvettes (Sunburn (SS-N-22) and Super Sunburn (SS-N-26)anti-ship missiles)
2 more Akula class SSNs (1 Akula and 1 Sierra already deployed)
Possible 1-2 Oscar II class SSGNs
