The Groznyy was a Soviet guided missile cruiser and the lead ship of the Kynda-class cruisers (Project 58). Built at the Zhdanov shipyard in Leningrad, it was commissioned into the Soviet Navy in 1962. It was among the first Soviet warships to carry anti-ship missiles as primary armament, equipped with the P-35 (SS-N-3 Shaddock) system. During the Cold War it deployed to the Mediterranean and shadowed US carrier task groups. Groznyy was struck from the naval register in 1991 and later scrapped.
