The fourth ship has been named the "Yuri Andropov". It was launched in April 1989. It should enter service in 1991 (according to HARPOON SITREP #4). This should be the last Kirov class ship. The fifth hull has been cancelled according to the article "The Soviet Navy in 1989: A US View" (USNI Proceedings, May 1990) written by the Director of US Naval Intelligence. -ted Ted Kim UCLA Computer Science Department Internet: tek@penzance.cs.ucla.edu 3804C Boelter Hall UUCP: ...!{uunet|ucbvax}!cs.ucla.edu!tek Los Angeles, CA 90024 Phone: (213) 206-8696
