 Frunze Conversion Proposal
In 1920, she was renamed Mikhail Frunze, which was shortened to Frunze sometime later.
Perhaps the project was deemed to be economically unrealistic, resources were not sufficient for both projects, or perhaps the availability of Italian guns and armor made the conversion less attractive.
For whatever reason, the Frunze was converted into a barracks ship, with all usable parts being stripped to provide spares for her three sisters, and she was eventually scuttled as a blockship in 1941.

 Mikhail Frunze and the Unified Military Doctrine - Storming Media (via CobWeb/3.1 planetlab2.cs.unc.edu)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
This thesis attempts to answer that question by addressing the debate over a Unified Military Doctrine beginning in 1921, through the lens of providing a critical analysis of the military and political experiences of its staunchest supporter: Mikhail Frunze.
In this paper, it will be argued that, despite the vast military experiences of Mikhail Frunze, his political experiences were more influential in creating the framework from which he crafted his version of a Unified Military Doctrine (UMD).
Through his foresight and persistence, Frunze was able to implement his version of the UMD, thus transforming the Red Army and setting the conditions for the subordination of all elements of power to the State.

Mikhail Frunze was an important military figure during the Russian Civil War.
Frunze failed to live up to Stalin's expectations and died suddenly -- or so everyone was told.
The story is set in 1925 and concerns the sudden "resignation" due to sickness (poisoning) of Mikhail Frunze (Vladimir Steklov), whose appointment as U.S.S.R. defense minister happened when Stalin was taking the reins of power into his hands and was implementing his lifelong practice of killing or imprisoning anyone he felt threatened by.

Frunze reported Kamenev and Zinoviev’s plans for a military coup to the Politburo, which angered Stalin, who was also in on the plot but was not revealed by Frunze, who did not know of his involvement.
Frunze’s replacement in the Politburo was Stalin’s close friend General Kliment Voroshilov, the newly-appointed People’s Commissar for Military and Navy Affairs and Chairman of the Military Revolutionary Council of the USSR.
He was held in check, however, by General Mikhail Tukhachevski, the Soviet Chief of Staff, who had served under Trotsky and was undyingly loyal to him.

Mikhail Frunze was an ethnic Romanian born in Bishkek.
His rank rose quickly after 1917, first, as head of a civilian militia in Minsk, then as president of the Belorussian Soviet, and later he gained fame (and infamy) when, as Military Commissar for the Voznesensk Province, he saved the Soviet hold on Central Asia (including his home town) during the Russian Civil War.
Bishkek was named "Frunze" in his honor and Frunze himself was eventually promoted to People’s Commissar of War, replacing the ousted Trotsky.
