Yes, but in my opinion it is somewhat fanciful, the author mentions the landing of computer algorithms to help the pilot and the polymer thread into which falls SU34 at landing, by the way, in the same book mentions another aircraft carrier, submarine-based nuclear submarine type of U.S. "Los Angeles" on it posted F35 and unmanned aerial vehicles.

Ladies and gentlemen, I hasten to report that he was able to convince the maestro GromoBoy present their work on your forum at the moment he is the best alt. shipbuilder in Russia, wait and be surprised!

I did manage to snag the top drawing of Novoarkhangelsk and did a SS report. I couldn't tell if the Main Battery was in turrets or mount and hoist, went with the latter (I'll fix this and repost)...

Guns of 10" caliber would most probably be built in a turret and barbette; the largest guns of the mount-and-hoist type I'm familiar with are 8". There may be larger guns but none I'm aware of.

I once went and looked up the largest guns in deck mounts and casemates just for my own curiosity. This is what I found:

DECK MOUNTS

The old BB Victoria (1890's) had a single 9.2-inch deck mount aft with a large shield. The Japanese bought three gunboats from the UK with 10-inch guns in deck mounts in the 1880's.

CASEMATES

The Russians had the Andrej Pervozvannyj-class with fourteen 8-inch guns (4 twin turrets and 6 casemates). And the German Scharnhorst-class AC's had eight 8.27-inch guns in 2 twin turrets and 4 casemates.

At least you do not have to translate from Cyrillic to Latin alphabet every time you read a post.
