GRIGORIY SISOEV Russia to Stop Purchasing Foreign 'Ready-Made' Military Equipment: Official Russias Defense Ministry has already approved the technical design specifications for its Leader class destroyers. The next-generation warships will be most likely be equipped with a Caliber high-precision cruise missile system and a S-500 Prometey antiaircraft defense system, which is more capable than US Aegis Ballistic Missile defense systems.
Each destroyer will have a Redut-Poliment anti-ship weapons system as well as Pantsir-M and Palash antiaircraft artillery.
The destroyers nuclear-powered and gas turbine propulsion power plant will be manufactured in Russia and will allow the ships to travel at 30 knots.
The warships will be capable of combatting submarines and will also be equipped with two special helicopters and a modern sonar system.

But what if we keep drilling? How will Russia pay for this.
And 2050? Stuff will be getting pretty old in 35 years.
Rushing to bankruptcy.
Why not 6,000? Just as likely to happen.
Gee...I wonder who this propaganda was meant for...

That DD has hot and cold running vodka.
Vladimir Putin best for America and World. He is Godlike, amazing talent man can kill with Judo and gun. Knows 100s of language. Live forever for skill. Naomi Wolfe hate him. Putin carve tanks out of steel with teeth.
Is all American lie that Vladimir Putin implied to be destabilize of Ukraine. Is lies. Ukraine destabilized by evil US, which spent $5 billion on this project. TV news show a video of Senator John McCain give speech to antigovernment protesters in Kievs Maidan Square. Is proof.
Putin is amazingly good and Obama is a fool and I am not a paid Kremlin internet propagandist.
Путин может создать жизнь от пыли. Он может парить над народы с золотом и серебром и любви. Джон Маккейн ума , и он попытаться свергнуть Украины. Барак Обама гомосексуальные и принимать наркотики кокаин. Америка зло.
LOL.
On the other hand, maybe this is directed at Americans.
In many cases (including some at FR) it appears highly effective.../s
