The Ukrainians didn't really maintain these facilities very much, did they? Looks like Zaliv could benefit from a massive overhaul, like the one they did to Morye in Feodosiya not long ago.

They are buying some frigates it appears, but unfortunately there has been complete confusion in the news as to which ships they will be/if they will be new builds.

Tr1 saw somewhere the Nakhimov being worked on.Didnt look in a bad shape at all.The space that Granits occupied was so big.Who knows even if they cannot fit like 40 Kalibers there.Also the translator said that due to automation updates the crew would be less than 500 now

Well it is being almost totally re-fit, it should look good :D.
Total Kalibr cells will be 80 BTW, it is all but confirmed from the photos of the UKSK cutouts.
IDK about crew going down to 500, that would be a nice feat!

It was (is?) used as a floating battery for many years now.

TBH Zaliv looked in better shape than Morye to me, and AFAIK they certainly had more volume of work in recent years.

Apparently the INS Chakra has been damaged- a hole near its sonar compartment, and Russian specialists are coming over to take a look.

Leopard, the first modernized 971M sub will be handed over in 2019 now, not 2018.
