Interesting article but it has a lot of mistakes

" The boat has 24 missile tubes which can carry the supersonic NPO Mashinostroyeniya P-800 Oniks anti-ship missile which can hit targets roughly 200 nautical miles away"

project-885 has eight SM-346 launchers.

Each launcher four missiles:

"Severodvinsk can also carry Novator RK-55 Granat nuclear-capable 1,600 nautical mile-range subsonic land attack cruise missiles."

RK-55 stayed in Soviet Union, together with the industry of the Soviet Union and not produced, Russian Navy purchases Kalibr

"The vessel has eight torpedo tubes, four of which are 650mm tubes while the rest are 533mm tubes."

Project-885 has eight 533-mm TT. Russian Navy after "Kursk" removed from service all 65-76 so that even submarines that have 650-mm TT do not have torpedoes for them.

No,SM-346 only for P-800 "Onyx" (and "Zirkon" but "Zirkon" need modification for launchers).

"Kalibr-PL" (3M-14,3M-54,91R1) launched from 533-mm TT

What is the range of oniks and kalibr cruise missile families? I know that the public data on the net are for the export versions that are limited by cruise and ballistic missile technology proliferation treaty.

P-800 "Onyx"-400 km
3M-14 - 1400 km (2600 km nuclear version)
3M-54 - 375 km subsonic (220 km with supersonic stage)
91R1 - 50 km (anti-sub missile for submarines, warhead APR-3M torpedo)
91RT2 - 40 km (anti-sub missiles for ships, warhead MTT torpedo)

Keep in mind that diameter of "Onyx"= 720mm, diameter of transport launching containers "Kalibr" family of missiles= 533mm
