A hybrid gun-and-missile Stalingrad counterfactual

A viewer's alternate design combines forward 305 mm turrets with navalized SS-2 launchers, a hybrid treated as plausible within the counterfactual.

Notes

A viewer imagines the Soviet large cruisers surviving into a different postwar political timeline and being completed as hybrid gun-and-missile ships. The proposal keeps two triple 305 mm turrets forward and adds magazine-fed, navalized SS-2 launchers. It is explicitly a counterfactual design sketch rather than a claim that such a ship entered service. The response calls the idea "disturbingly likely," treating the combination as plausible within the altered premise.
