Title: MOLOTOV (Soviet heavy cruiser, 1939-circa 1975)
Caption: Close-up of the after triple 7.1-in. (180-mm) 57-caliber triple gun turret aboard the Black Sea fleet cruiser MOLOTOV (renamed SLAVA in 1958). This photograph probably was made during 1942 or 1943. Note the light anti-aircraft guns on the after superstructure; two appear to be 37-mm. While one looks smaller, perhaps a 12.7-mm weapon.
