-The '''{{Specs|name}}''' was a Soviet Leningrad-class destroyer leader built in 1930s as third out of six ships. She was laid down on 29th October 1932 and comissioned on 10th August 1938. The design was inspired by French Vaquelin-class destroyers as Soviets wanted to built simmilar ship on their own. Due to the uneven weight distribution, the ships were top heavy and had poor seaworthiness in rough seas. Moskva´s career was very short. Shortly after the attack on Soviet Union, she was tasked with bombarding of Romanian port of Constanta on 26th June 1941. She struck a mine during the attack and sunk with loss of all but 69 crew.

-Moskva was introduced in [[Update 1.85 "Supersonic"]]. She was the first destroyer-leader in the game, second one being Tashkent. As with all 1930s Soviet designs, Moskva uses manually traversed turrets causing low traverse speed, making engaging different targets difficult. Another issue shared by nearly all destroyers are the magazines and their placement above waterline without any armour protection often leading to fatal explosion when hit. On the other hand Moskva´s very high top speed makes her easy to close distance to enemies for torpedo run with her fast albeit short ranged torpedoes.

 The guns themselves have access to three shell types: the OF-46 high-explosive (HE) shell, the PB-46A semi armour-piercing (SAPBC) shell, and the ZS-46R proximity-fused (HE-VT) shell. Of these weapons, the HE shell is usually the best against enemy destroyers and ships as it packs the most explosive filler, 3.58 kg of it to be exact. The SAPBC shell works better against the occasional cruiser you may encounter, as it packs more penetration capacity (up to 179 mm compared to 36 mm for the HE shell). Finally, the HE-VT shell is good against aircraft as it will explode when close enough to the enemy aircraft, meaning that it doesn't require a direct hit. However, it actually packs less explosive filler than the normal HE shell, which is unusual for any HE-VT shell. Combined with the horrible traverse rate, this means the guns aren't particularly suited for anti-aircraft duties.

 The Moskva also carries two 45 mm 21-K mountings beside the second forward gun, in front of the superstructure. The 21-K mounting is rather mediocre and performs far poorer than the smaller-calibre but faster firing 70-K 37 mm gun. These guns have an extremely similar reload sped to the 34-K, but pack much less punch. That said, these weapons are still quite effective against small ships and aircraft.

 As with many WWII-era Soviet destroyers, the Moskva enjoys great mobility, particularly its top speed: 80 km/h in realistic and 107 km/h in arcade. In fact, the Moskva is the fastest destroyer in the game, jointly with its sister ship [[Leningrad]]. However, Moskva's acceleration, turn time and rudder shift are mediocre among ships of its class.

 <!-- Talk about the vehicle's armour. Note the most well-defended and most vulnerable zones, e.g. the ammo magazine. Evaluate the composition of components and assemblies responsible for movement and manoeuvrability. Evaluate the survivability of the primary and secondary armaments separately. Don't forget to mention the size of the crew, which plays an important role in fleet mechanics. Save tips on preserving survivability for the "Usage in battles" section. If necessary, use a graphical template to show the most well-protected or most vulnerable points in the armour. -->
-The Moskva has great survivability for a destroyer, given that it is a destroyer leader. First, the ship has a crew count of 323 crew members, comparable to the American [[USS Sumner|Sumner]] or German [[Type 1936 (Family)|Type 1936]]-class destroyers. The ship's ammunition racks and transmission are all located well below the waterline, decreasing the chance that they are hit. However, the Moskva's engines are partly above water and can be knocked out quite easily.
