Russian and Soviet Aircraft Carriers

[uk 75]

The Russian Navy focus on frigates and submarines puts me in mind of cash strapped post 1966 Britain.

It is no accident that wishful thinking artwork abounded in both countries as a glance at this site shows.

What type are those two large height-finding radars on island of the original Pr.1160 model?
I can't place them on any other Soviet design of the period.

It should be Razliv, carried on the Dzerzhinsky after her conversion to Project 70E. NATO called it High Lune. There might be some detail differences but they are likely incidental. After looking at the pictures and looking up the Dzerzhinsky, they seem to be one and the same.
