Poltava
In May 1936, the U.S.S.R. Council of Labor and Defense gave the order to build eight battleships and 18 heavy cruisers. The latter ones were codenamed Type B battleships; their construction was scheduled to take place from 1937 to 1941. The ship's characteristics were constantly adjusted, and the designed displacement of the battleship had reached 48,000 tons by late 1937. As a result, it was decided to abandon the project in favor of the Sovetsky Soyuz-class battleships.
