Russia
Kashin Class Destroyer
The Kashin class, Soviet designation Project 61, were series of anti-aircraft guided-missile destroyers built for the Soviet Navy since the 1960s. As of 2020, no ships remain in service with the Russian Navy, but three modified ships continue in service with the Indian Navy as Rajput-class destroyers.
In the Soviet Union they were officially classified as "guard ships" (storozhevoi korabl – SKR), then "large ASW ships" (BPK) or "large missile ships" (BRK), but in the rest of world they are commonly regarded as missile destroyers due to their size and armament. They were the first Soviet purpose-built anti-air warfare ships and the first to carry an ASW helicopter.

The National Navy of Colombia carried out exercises in the Colombian Caribbean Sea, with the purpose of strengthening the level of training of crew members and increasing the effectiveness of operational and emergency reaction procedures. On this occasion it began with a Rendevouz and the welcome by the ARC Missile Frigate “Almirante Padilla” ARC-51 to the crew of the Gloria School ship as it entered Colombian waters, marked by a demonstration of the majesty of the Floating Ambassador of Colombia in the seas of the world.

30mm cannon shell impacts on Rothesay-class frigate HMS Plymouth (F126) after it was attacked by Argentine IAI Daggers on June 8th 1982
On 8 June, HMS Plymouth (F126) was alone in Falkland Sound, returning from a naval gunfire mission, when she was attacked by five Dagger fighter-bombers of Grupo 6 of the Argentine Air Force. Despite Plymouth firing her 20 mm guns and a Seacat missile, the aircraft dropped eight Mk 82 500 lb bombs, five of which struck home, and fired their 30mm cannons. One Dagger was unable to release its payload due to a mechanical failure, and another suffered light damage from shrapnel. According to other sources Plymouth was hit by four 1000 lb bombs. All of the bombs failed to explode, but caused extensive damage: one hit the flight deck, detonating a depth charge and starting a fire, one went straight through her funnel and two more destroyed her Limbo anti-submarine mortar. Internal flooding caused the ship to take a six degree list. Five men were injured in the attack, and were rapidly evacuated by helicopter. The fire took 90 minutes to extinguish with assistance from HMS Avenger, and repairs were carried out through the night and the next day, restoring some of her capabilities. Plymouth then withdrew to a repair area, where naval personnel on board the oil rig support vessel MV Stena Seaspread assisted in returning her to fighting order. She returned to shore bombardment duties on 14 June, when Argentine forces in the Falklands finally surrendered.
