The frigate Admiral of the Fleet of the Soviet Union Gorshkov is a modern multipurpose ship with guided missile weapons designed to solve problems in the far sea and ocean zones. It was accepted into the Navy in 2018, and in 2021 it was finalized for the use of hypersonic Zircon missiles. A ship armed with "Zircons" is capable of delivering pinpoint and powerful strikes on any enemy objects at sea and on land. At the same time, a feature of the Zircon hypersonic missiles is the ability to reliably overcome any modern and promising air defense-missile defense systems.
