Wait. They were “Getting ready for War!” Just two days ago.
According the anti carrier crowd, this is the best thing that could happen to the Red Navy. Heck, I think some of our armchair admirals would just as soon scuttle or CVN force the way they talk so negatively about them.
“Wait. They were “Getting ready for War!” Just two days ago.”
Looks as though they were “just kidding!” Maybe they should sell this piece of Shit to the Chinese, so the will have a pair. The Lioning (sp) is the Admiral Kuznetsov’s “twin” piece of crap!
I’m thinking you’re on the right track.
Ivan has had a raft of problems with that single carrier they have. They should rename it the Jinx-ski.
patch the hull and repair/retrofit it in china, or here. its not likely much of a threat.
Perhaps they could fill it with helium.
A nice shopping mall, it would make.
Imagine the luxury of being a sailor on that floating smoke machine.
Don’t know how much stock to put into this, but they could just as easily go to a drydock in a friendly country and get it done.
It would be more expensive, but you could get it done.
Anyway, that sort of sucks for the Russians. I believe they are adversaries. What do you call a bunch of countries that spied on a sitting US President and tried to game an election?
I don’t call them allies.
National interest beats all.
It has only 8 working toilets. Sailors have to shit and piss in buckets.
Sailors pee over the side.
I don’t think Russia has any friendly countries that have a drydock of adequate size. Their friends are “sh*thole” countries like Nicaragua, Venezuela and Cuba.
“The Swedish-made PD-50 drydock reportedly sank”
A Volvo?
Words rarely seen in the same sentence: “Russian world class quality assurance”
Am I the only one that thinks a submersible dry dock sounds cool.
