Admiral Kuznetsov Carrier
Soviet aircraft carrier — integrated naval-air coverage, long-range strategic strike.
🎁 Event📊 S · 1–12🌍 Standard
The Admiral Kuznetsov carrier (Project 1143.5) is the sole aircraft carrier serving in the Russian Navy. Designed during the Cold War, it combines a ski-jump flight deck with heavy anti-ship missiles — a uniquely hybrid doctrine. In WC4, it is a tier-S naval elite unit that fuses air coverage with naval strike: it generates air sorties like a carrier while retaining the heavy arsenal of a battlecruiser.

❓ Frequently asked questions
How do you unlock Admiral Kuznetsov?
The Admiral Kuznetsov carrier is introduced with the summer 2026 patch. Unlock cost: 40 fragments. Available via seasonal event.
What is Admiral Kuznetsov's role?
It's a hybrid unit combining air coverage (generates air sorties each turn) and heavy naval strike (Granit missiles). Its main strength is versatility: long-range missile attacks, air defense sorties, and fleet support bonuses. Place it at the center of a naval battle group to maximize its Carrier Battle Group perk.
Are the displayed stats accurate?
No — only the base values (Attack 85, Defense 28, HP 845, Movement 4, Range 3) are estimates based on the ship's doctrine and historical performance. Progression values for levels 2 through 12 are placeholders pending full in-game capture. The banner at the top of this page lists what remains to verify.
