After having suffered losses during the Russo-Japanese War in 1907, the development of a new class of cruisers for the Baltic Fleet commenced. The ships were laid down in 1913, but construction was delayed due to the outbreak of World War I—cruiser Svietlana entered service only in 1928. Later, she was transferred to the Black Sea Fleet. During the course of World War II, the ship, renamed Krasny Krym, participated in the sieges of Odessa and Sevastopol, Operations Kerch and Sudak, and the evacuation of Novorossiysk.
