Interesting. The Admiral Gorshkov is bigger, but the Bartolomeu Dias is very slightly faster (as of when the Dutch operated it) and just came off of upgrades.

The Portuguese are one of the smallest members of NATO, but kudos to their navy for doing the useful work of watching the Ruskies.

The Russians barely got this ship delivered. She is supposed to be a first in her class. Plans for follow up ship are on hold.

She looks nice. But who would want to take that to war? It’s held together with duct tape and grey paint.
