The vessel can also be armed with Pantsir-S1 anti-aircraft missile complex, Poliment-Redut anti-aircraft system and Vityaz S-350 missile system that will be enhanced for naval purposes.
Leader destroyers will also be equipped with about 200 vertical cold start launchers.
In the future, the ships will be armed with Caliber cruise missiles, Zircon hypersonic missiles and a modified version of the air-missile complex Kinzhal.
