Russian P-700 Granit ASM

The Soviet P-700 Granit was a large supersonic anti-ship missile developed to threaten powerful surface groups, particularly aircraft-carrier forces. It was associated with platforms such as Oscar-class submarines and Kirov-class nuclear-powered cruisers. The system reflected a Soviet emphasis on long-range missile salvos against heavily defended fleets, rather than reliance on a matching fleet of large strike carriers. The missile’s large size required substantial launch arrangements aboard its carrying ships and submarines. It was part of a wider reconnaissance-and-targeting problem: a long-range weapon still needed useful information about a moving naval target. The Granit concept therefore connects missile engineering with fleet surveillance and the practical difficulty of attacking defended formations at sea.
