Did the Moskva design make sense for anti-submarine work?

The favorable judgment applies to Moskva's helicopter-hangar role, alongside strong criticism of the wider design.

Question

Did the Moskva-class design make sense as an anti-submarine asset?

Short answer

Its helicopter-hangar function did. The rest of the design receives much less approval.

Notes

Moskva's helicopter hangar is judged useful for anti-submarine work. That limited approval coexists with a strongly negative assessment of the rest of the design.
