TBH no navy is but there's a tendency to think of them as a massive force - they're not.
There are lots of arguments about the relative value of different classes of ships but numbers are relatively easy to ascertain.

Got you. Apologies, context unclear. Didn't realise it was the Russ you were detailing. I'm further assuming that those are deliveries vs "in-service" assets, which would of course be somewhat higher.
They haven't been a massive force since 1990. They're still capable of putting a task group to sea though - although given how their comrades have performed on and over Ukraine, not sure how much credence I'd give them. Where they are a threat is in their naval air force and their submarines (few though they are).
