Prosuper Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 The Kuznetsov I guess we still think them a threat even when it was in the Med it had to be accompanied by a sea going tug. It's class A mishap rate was high doing ops over Syria Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

waveshaper Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 This seems to be typical stuff that happens in the world of dry-docks. Heck, in the last few months/years we had the same thing happen a few times, including; dry-docks sinking, cutting big holes in the hull/flooding/damaging new U.S. Navy ships, etc. It normally takes the U.S. about 3 months to refloat a sunk/damaged dry-dock, I wouldn't be surprised if it takes the Russians longer to refloat their junk. .

DirkDiggler Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 I'm guessing the unofficial 10% truth story involves a case of vodka, a pot of honey, a bear, and the Russian equivalent of "hold my beer and watch this"......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
