Pyotr Velikiy is the fourth Kirov-class battlecruiser of the Russian Navy.

Initially named Yuri Andropov for Yuri Andropov, the former General
Secretary of the Communist Party, the ship's name was changed after the
fall of the Soviet Union. The Russian designation for the type is "heavy
missile cruiser", but Western defense commentators re-invented the term
"battlecruiser" to describe these as they are the largest surface
combatant warships in the world. Pyotr Velikiy is the flagship of the
Northern Fleet.
Construction of the ship was heavily affected by the economic problems
before and after the fall of the Soviet Union and it was not commissioned
until 1998, twelve years after work had started. By then it had been
renamed Pyotr Velikiy, Russian for Peter the Great. Pyotr Velikiy has
been known to carry two pennant numbers during its service; "183" and
currently "099"
