500+ Good Articles in, there's not going to be much.. but am happy to review this.

Might be worth mentioning in the lead she was steam powered
but the rifling project was seriously delayed and the ship was completed with nine-inch smoothbores; was this the original smoothbores? Or some others?
- Clarified.
license-built; WL to Licensed production?
- Done.
just as in the Passaic-class ships; the lead says The design was based on the American Passaic-class monitor, but this is the only mention in the article prose. Is there anything to expand on here?
- Only minorly.
Unlike their predecessors, the Uragans were built without deck armor to save weight, but Tifon was modified for the addition of 0.5-inch (12.7 mm) armor plates after completion, but it is unknown if they were ever fitted; fragments and "but" twice - consider revising
- Tweaked.
The ship was subsequently broken up in Finland; but hadn't she been returned to the Soviets? Any more context to add here.
- I wish, but she was pretty worthless by this time and my sources don't have any fuller information.

Thanks; I think that I've addressed everything, see if they suit. And thanks for looking this over.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 19:21, 30 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
