Now is it my fault that lavina means "avalanche" in Russian???
The warship has been deftly named.
So this ship is jinxed from the offset !

Mmmm, bow doors on a 24k tons vessel. You really want to beach that?Or may be Russians should not have named their warship as Lavina.

I also heard that according to the contract, France cannot sell the helicopter carrier ships to anybody else, without Russia approval..so thats a big loss to France.

You second pic shows a model based on the Udaloy (project 1155)Even if you have the technology equal or superior to someone else's technology - to gain access to them it means to strengthen your position.
Perhaps because the former Soviet aircraft carriers combines the functionality of a cruiser and an aircraft carrier.
As for this ship - it displacement is 17,500 tons. It should yave a big control tower. Zumvalt also has a big one.
But fregates project 2235 - have low silhouette.

Perspective destroyer Project 23560
Russian destroyer design revealed - IHS Jane's 360A new class of destroyer for the Russian Navy is currently under development by the Krylov State Research Center (KSRC), IHS Jane's was told during a visit to the company.
The new design is called Project 23560E or Shkval (Squall), KSRC's deputy director, Valery Polyakov, who added that a scale model of the design is going to be exhibited for the first time during the International Maritime Defence Show 2015 in St Petersburg from 1-5 July.
"The Project 23560E destroyer is intended to conduct operations in off-shore maritime and oceanic zones, to destroy land and naval targets, to provide combat stability to naval forces, to maintain area anti-air and anti-missile defence, and to complete peacetime tasks in all zones of the world's oceans," said Polyakov.
The Project 23560E destroyer has full-load displacement of 15,000-18,000 tons, a length of 200 m, beam of 23 m, draft of 6.6 m, high speed of 32 kt, cruise speed of 20 kt, endurance of 90 days, and a crew of 250-300.
The destroyer is intended to be powered by a gas turbine engine (although Russia currently lacks any adequate sources for naval gas turbines). It is proposed to be fitted with a battle management system integrated with tactical and operational-tactical ACSs.
The destroyer's armament comprises 60-70 anti-ship or anti-land cruise missiles, 128 surface-to-air missiles (SAMs), and 16-24 anti-submarine missiles. The ship is also equipped with a 130 mm multipurpose naval gun.
The destroyer's integrated electronic package includes a multi-functional phased array radar, electronic warfare subsystem, communications suite, underwater reconnaissance system. The aviation wing consists of two utility helicopters. These specifications could all be changed to suit customer requirements however, Polyakov stated
Thats for the french to decide.You really want to beach that?
