Entering service in September 1904, she sailed a month later on 15 October 1904, with the Second Pacific Squadron to break the Japanese blockade of Port Arthur.

Knyaz Suvorov was eventually torpedoed and sunk by Japanese torpedo boats; other than 20 wounded officers evacuated by a destroyer, there were no survivors.
