The Royal Navy's Falklands experience provides a comparison for vulnerabilities that extend beyond Russian hardware. Shipboard communications can interfere with radar coverage or require attention to be directed away from particular sectors, depending on the installation and operating procedure. A regular transmission schedule may then tell an opponent when or where coverage is weaker. The exact cause of Moskva's loss remains open, but routine behavior can defeat impressive defensive specifications through this kind of operational gap.

Communications and radar routines can create a predictable gap
A comparison with Royal Navy losses in the Falklands shows how communications requirements and repeated transmission schedules can make radar coverage vulnerable even when the ship has capable missiles.
