By the looks of it Leader class would be more of a Slava class replacement, with the Gorshkov class (and Gorshkov class follow ups) replacing Sovremeny's and Udaloys.

In total we have 8 operational Udaloys and 3 operational Sovremenys. This means that we have a requirement for 8 (replacement of Udaloys 1 for 1), 11 (replacement of both the Udaloys and Sovremenys 1 for 1) or 22 (replacement of both classes 2 for 1).
The first option appears to be within the GPV2020. In my opinion the fist and second options would be complete by 2025 (including Gorshkov class follow ups) and the 3rd could be complete by 2030.
