The Slava class were designed to be carrier killers. They have nuclear capable cruise missiles, but the Slava class were not part of the Soviets nuclear triad.
Thank you!
So the cruise missles are long range bomber launched? Subs launch them?

Cruise missiles can be launched by air, sea, subsurface and land. Back in the 70s and 80s cruise missiles could carry a conventional or NBC warhead. After the USSR dissolved nukes were typically removed from surface vessels. The vessels typically carrying them were SSBNs.
Course this war may change all that.
