The Trumpeter 05720 Russian Navy Slava Class Cruiser Moskva 1/700 is a faithfully reproduced plastic scale model kit depicting the flagship missile cruiser of the Russian Black Sea Fleet – Moskva. Based on project 1164, known as the Slava class, this vessel has gained worldwide fame as one of the most powerful and recognizable contemporary surface ships of the Russian Federation.

The original ship was launched in 1979 and entered service in 1983, initially under the name Slava. After extensive modernization, renamed Moskva with hull number 121, she has served as the flagship of the Black Sea Fleet since 2000. Ships of this type have been operationally used during the Cold War, in the Black Sea conflict, and in numerous modern missions showcasing Russian dominance along sea routes.
