No, that’s not an onboard fire after a missile strike – that’s the normal view of the Admiral Kuznetsov, Russia’s entry in the “World’s Least Stealthy Ship Award” contest. Can see that puppy miles over the horizon sending out smoke signals like a pissed-off Apache. And right now, that’s the GOOD part of its operation.<\/p>\n

“The military and shipbuilders of the Russian Federation are trying to shift responsibility to each other for bringing the only Russian aircraft carrier to a critical condition.<\/p>\n

The only Russian aircraft carrier, the heavy aircraft carrier Admiral Kuznetsov, is in disrepair.<\/p>\n

Defence Intelligence reports that the Russians decided to move the ship from the dry dock to one of the piers of the ship repair plant to continue the repair works.<\/p>\n

Ship repairmen warned the military that the condition of Admiral Kuznetsov does not allow it to be deployed due to the high probability that it would sink or capsize.<\/p>\n

During the examination, it was revealed that the metal structures below the third deck of the ship were significantly corroded. The holds are filled with muddy water, which makes it impossible to examine the ship in detail from the inside.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

So the pride of the Russian fleet is so rotted out that trying to move it pierside could result in it capsizing or sinking. Bet that’s a comfort to the Russian sailors? The Navy is fining the 35th Ship Repair plant 1,500,000,000 rubles (I would joke that was equivalent in cost to an Earl Scheib paint job, but it’s $2,100,000US.)\u00a0 The 35th is blaming it on the Northern Fleet Navy reps. No one apparently wants this maritime tar baby on their hands.<\/p>\n

According to available intelligence data, there are not even any approximate deadlines for completing the repair of Admiral Kuznetsov and returning it to service.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Disclaimer time: the original article is from Ukrainska Pravda, the source of much of the overinflated (“Brave pilot shoots down 26 MiGs with BB Gun”) propaganda we see. But the single most prestigious naval vessel they\u00a0 have rotting up from the waterline…there’s a simile you just can’t ignore. Wouldn’t it be nice if all of their nukes were in just as good of shape.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
