Highly destructive and able to repair itself, should it sustain damage, the Kirov Airships of the new timeline is very similar to its previous iteration, right down to its famous shark mouth markings on the nose. Although somewhat less heavily armoured than its predecessor, this version of the Kirov can still sustain a great deal of damage. While somewhat faster than its predecessor, it is still abysmally slow, although this can be mitigated to an extent using the Gastroburners (see below).
