As it turned out this little, old pre-dreadnought was one of Imperial Russia's most useful warships in WW1. She certainly became a thorn in the side of the German Baltic Fleet units in the Moon Sound area.
A lowly, old battleship with only 4-12" versus German dreadnoughts with 10-12" and even 8-14.9"!!!
The first pic is allegedly the last taken of SLAVA in action during the Moon Sound battles........... DFO
