Wow, a TWELVE year refit? The U.S. Refueling and Overhaul process takes one to two years for submarines and up to almost three years for an aircraft carrier.

Barnacles and weed, yes. I hear they plan to careen the sub on a beach somewhere to do the job.

MOSCOW, March 7 2012 (Itar-Tass) — Russia will not modernize its Project 941 Akula-class nuclear-powered ballistic missile submarines due to financial considerations, a well-informed source in the Russian defence sector told Itar-Tass on Wednesday.

See the date.

Dark Truth Behind Ukraine's NATO-Armed Border Raids + Cost of Attrition Continues to Mount

Update on the conflict in Ukraine for June 3, 2023

- Ukrainian cross-border operations are spearheaded by militants identified by even the Western media as N*z**; MO< - Ukraine has increasingly relied on terrorism following the loss of Bakhmut and a growing missile and drone campaign being carried out by Russia across Ukraine;

- New “security assistance” package from the US Department of Defense to Ukraine includes munitions reflecting Ukraine’s growing shortage of air defense capabilities;

- Talk of tanks and warplanes are admittedly for Ukraine’s use in the distant future, not for the upcoming offensive;

I'd think we'd be more concerned with Russia's lastest Subs....

Russia plans to move its newest nuclear submarine to a permanent base in the Kamchatka Peninsula in August, according to Russia’s state-run TASS news agency...

'The Generalissimo Suvorov', which entered service at the end of 2022, carries up to 16 nuclear-tipped Russian Bulava intercontinental ballistic missiles, each of which can carry more than one nuclear warhead.

Man the Russians believed in big boats. And A 12-year overhaul? Seems it would have been easier just to build a new boat!

The Russian military is so broke that they are raiding museums for WW2 Japanese dive bombers and buying old Korean War fighters from North Korea

"The Russian Navy Is So Broke It Is Scraping Its Biggest Submarine Ever"

With our now-suspended $31.4 trillion debt ceiling, the US is far, far broker than the Russkies could ever dream to be!
