Sure the ship is ‘packed with weapons’ - but it’s doubtful many of them actually function. I’ve been on Russian ships, and their missile tubes had so many coats of paint, it’s doubtful they can even open them without several needleguns and sledgehammers.

Imagine the outrage if one of ours got Harpooned in the Gulf of Mexico.

You mean if we invaded Mexico, leveled their cities and then they attacked one of our ships?

Silly, the ship was sunk to put out the fire. It was a command decision to preserve C&C.

In 1994 the Kursk sank thanks to a bad weld in a torpedo. Better for the Russian armed forces to believe that their boats can sink by accident. ;^) Thanks RACPE.
The plane crash at Pushkin airfield on February 7, 1981 became the very last accident in the Tupolev Tu-104 history, after which they were permanently retired from service. But the main reason the disaster at Pushkin airfield went down in history was because this single crash had almost entirely beheaded the Soviet Pacific Fleet. That day, in just a few seconds, the Soviet Navy lost 16 admirals and generals, including the commander of the Pacific Fleet admiral Emil Spiridonov.

The Russian navy cruiser Moskva by far is the most powerful warship in the Black Sea.
