I’m not in a hurry to take Dmitry’s word from his lefty sinecure at Harvard on this subject. What do Jane’s or other reliable sources say about it?
The Russian Navy collapsed 25 years ago.
Just because they are low on boats is no reason to collapse. Can't bammy just shed a few of ours? With parity, the Russian Navy could be in fine shape.
Heck, our whole country is.

In the last two years, Russia’s second-biggest fleet, the Pacific Fleet, has been receiving new ships for the first time since the collapse of the Soviet Union. In 2013 the fleet obtained a new Borei-class nuclear-powered ballistic missile submarines (SSBN), and is expecting five more over the next decade. The fleet has furthermore received one Dyugon-class landing craft in 2014. This modernization campaign is part of an ambitious naval re-armament program over the next 20 years
