Translit.
[edit]I believe it should be transliterated as RO-SS-I-YA. According to IPA Я correlates to ja -> ya. Slaja (talk) 20:36, 6 May 2010 (UTC)
- That's the rendition that I'm more familiar with, but I referenced several texts that transliterate it as given so I did not feel it necessary to change it so long as there's a redirect for the other spelling. But feel free to move it and correct the text it you like.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 21:44, 6 May 2010 (UTC)

Do we know what the cruising speed on just the central shaft is? Is it the 10kn mentioned in her range? If so, this could be made clearer.Navweaps has information on torpedoes that might be used to flesh out the last bit in the armament section. But, if you don't know the model carried on the ship that's fine too. I've had that problem before.- Good idea, done.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 14:57, 25 May 2010 (UTC)
