Moskva
See also: Paper Tiger
The flagship of the Russian Black Sea Fleet that was sunk on April 14, 2022 during the illegal invasion of Ukraine. Despite claims from Russia and people on the internet that the ship was "invincible", only two R-360 "Neptune" anti-ship missiles launched from Ukraine were needed to sink it. In reality, the ship's defensive systems were horribly outdated, and the radar for the ship's S-300F SAMs was apparently unable to see the incoming missiles. It's also worth noting that Moskva was the same ship that was told to "go fuck itself" early in the conflict by Ukrainian forces on Snake Island.
