Re: Black Cross Red Star, Vol. 2, now sent to the printer - this is not the old edition!
BCRS V2 P64 has SKA-063 sunk by the Luftwaffe navy.su/other/lost/index.htm has this craft sunk by coastal artillery. I believe a number of Soviet small craft were either sunk or damaged during this period so you can understand the confusion over who sank who.
Operation Eisstoss or ice thrust 4-5 April 42 and operation Gotz Von Berlichingen BCRS V2 page 174-178 Battleship October Revolution BCRS V2 4 Apr 42 near miss 24 Apr 42 "close hit" Russian and Soviet Battleships Stephen McLaugin 4 Apr 42 hit "1 heavy and 3 medium bombs" 24 Apr 42 "3 bombs' "Repairs lasted until November 1943 Note Mclaugin has a video on youtube "Designing Warships For Stalin" and has a book in the works "Russian and Soviet Cruisers" Cruisers Maxim Gorki 4 Apr 42 near miss Kirov 4 Apr 42 bomb hit but failed to explode 24 Apr 42 2 direct bomb hits in the stern 78 KIA 46 WIA Warship 2009 The Soviet light cruisers of the Kirov Class Maxim Gorki 4 Apr 42 2 close misses 24 Apr 42 no hits but damaging near misses killed 3 and wounded 5. 25 and 27 Apr more near misses damged most of the radios and rangefinders as well as boiler no.3 and one of the turbines.
