This is not a ship. It's a mobile waste burning facility for Mazut. Mazut is a waste product of the oil refinary industry. Bunker C - which is often used - is really drity, but mazut is even worse. This "Flagship" of the russian navy is worst piece of trash every build by humans.
Years ago, I used to work with steam powered engines. To power these engines, we would burn Coke, not the beverage, not the drug, but once burned coal. Dirty, well, you be the judge....
The Russians are doing so well that they are now sending sailors to the front... This is simply a waste of personnel, training and money. In any other military with high standards this would be unacceptable.
So it begins. The Germans parceled out their sailor's during WWII because they were no longer needed as sailors. Their surface navy was toast and as the war went on their submarine fleet went to the bottom every time it ventured out of port. So Russian sailor's will now become "Naval Infantrymen"!
@@richardsanders4624 It's been saved, if it had been sent to the Black Sea, it and the crew would be another part of the Russian Back Sea submarine fleet.
@@richardsanders4624 yeh, the one that went to China was to be part of a resort, amusement park, restaurants type thing, buts just left to rot in a bay. Utubers have went on board an made vids. LoL
Well the Chinese bought a rusting hulk from Ukraine to turn it into a floating amusement park, somehow the PLAN changed , pun intended,(not a miss spell , Peoples Liberation Army Navy) was able to make it into the LIAONING, Chinas first aircraft carrier😂
Russia stole this carrier from Ukraine (where it was built) when the Soviet Union ceased to exist. Ever since then, it has not been functional, with several large fires and technical problems. The sister ship was never completed, the hull was sold to China by Ukraine and construction finished. It was commissioned as China's first aircraft carrier, the Liaoning.
That's not true. After Ukraine's independence the complete navy was divided between Ukraine and Russia. The Kuznetsov went to Russia and they commissioned it. That was not disputed in 1991
@@petroleumalley It is true. "After the 1991 Soviet coup d'état attempt and the independence of Ukraine, Ukrainian president Leonid Kravchuk sent a telegram to the ship's commander Viktor Yarygin, declaring that Admiral Kuznetsov was Ukrainian property, and that the ship should remain in Sevastopol until the Ukrainian government made a decision on its fate. Deputy commander of the Northern Fleet Yuri Ustimenko urgently arrived from the Arctic to pre-empt the Ukrainian government and gave the order for Admiral Kuznetsov to sail to Vidyayevo so the ship could remain in the Soviet fleet. In December 1991, it sailed from the Black Sea to join the Northern Fleet."
@@petroleumalley "That was not disputed in 1991" More truth from the people who told us the little green men in Crimea weren't ruSSians and reports that ruSSia was about to invade Ukraine in February 2022 were a western provocation. Those same people have made it a criminal offense to mention the USSR invaded Poland under the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact in 1939. So, yeah, go peddle your ruSSian fantasy truths somewhere else, vatnik.
It' isn't even nuclear power, a oil burner. That means if it was deployed it would need a support groupof AOs and supply ships. Basically a floating scrap yard.
Just to set the record straight, the carrier was stolen from Ukraine. Russia had not even a harbour to accommodate a carrier nor the knowledge to maintaining it.
FUN FACT. The sneaky Soviets only had 5 aircraft on it but kept repainting the numbers on the aircraft to make the west think they had 50 active fighter jets.
Imagine having the nerve (and being so stupid as) to sail that thing past the coast of Britain, home of the Royal Navy. Did they really think the Brits would be impressed?! Jeez.
This is what the US proxy war against Russia looks like through the eyes of an economist. The banking sector is accumulating unrealized losses, like a ship that has been holed, taking on “water in the hold.” As a result, economists claim that the economic crisis of 2008 will seem like a “light breeze” compared to what is coming.
China once bought an aircraft carrier from the ex-USSR. They have learned everything what was possible from that ship. In the mean time, China is building aircraft carriers according to their own designs. So why should they buy something which is totally outdated and useless for them?
Are you kidding? Are you kidding that piece of junk? What a piece of junk, you can't even call that an aircraft Carrier. With the smoke you could see at 20 miles away. It's a pathetic piece of junk.
Designed to handle missions in the med and apparent loads of uninsulated pipes so in cold they burst, inefficient boilers etc. completely useless in Russian waters. Goes out with an ocean going tug to drag it back.
Iran To Interested With The Eks Russia Super-Carrier Ship But China & India To Buying It's On A Special Price Orders Like The Gold Exchange Deposit Into A Vladimir Putin Pockets😅
"Russian marines were sent into Kursk, not Russian sailors" Da, da, da. Is good post, vatnik. Also include Kommisar's other very important very truthful news: The little green men in Crimea aren't ruSSians! ruSSian soldiers and tanks invading Donbas are there on their holidays! We didn't shoot down Malaysian airliner! Reports glorious Rodina is about to invade Ukraine are western provocation! Moskva sank due to careless smoking! No war crimes in Bucha, nothing to see comrade! Prigozhin is safe on honour of ruSSian president! All Ukrainian drones intercepted and no damage to exploding ammunition depots!
Haha ha ha. .like modern aircraft carriers are currently any use in a modern era. with new anti-ship missiles and kenzal hyper sonic carrier killers..so 80`s now , well apart from the British one which takes on more water than it displaces.
@@dvsfreek Ivan. Oh dear. It looks like your feeling the pressure and having a melt down. Is it because you're terrified of being mobilized and sent to the Ukrainian meat grinder?
Don't worry. The British aircraft carrier was on sea trials and not on active service. The whole point of sea trials is to find the problems and fix them. That's why the clue is in the name. SEA TRIALS.
So all that money and time trying to get it fixed up so it didn't have to be towed around were for nothing? Maybe they should ask China how to fix old Russian aircraft carriers?
News flash there, Richard. A carrier is an offensive weapon, and so is your mother, Russia. If that were the case (defense), then why have it at all? You've just contradicted yourself.
@@skipperclinton1087 It's very offensive to the nose too, stank up the whole time it when they sent it out it polluted the air all the way down through the English Channel and into the Mediterranean. It was even belching that nasty stuff as it had to quickly turn around and be towed back the whole way to where it rots to this day!
