There will be a protracted study, design, and engineering phase, with schedule delays, bloated budgets, and mysteriously missing funds. Eventually, the project will be revised for a new concept with a new round of funding. The chance of a major Russian naval aircraft carrier ever being deployed is nil.

Any investment in huge surface warships is foolish. These ships are very vulnerable to flocks of “seagull drones” each packed with 1 kg of C4 plastique, launched by a submarine hundreds of miles away and directed to target via satellite. These big ships simply cannot survive.

However, any indication of Russian plans should be taken with skepticism.

Holds true for anything you read these days. Didn't Brian Williams do a report on this.

Well, if it fails they can always sell it off to India then charge them out the butt to refit it.

OK, whatever.

Looking back, it's hard to believe we ever used to worry about these folks.

The Kuznetsov is Russia's only functioning carrier.

"Functioning" is a relative term.

It should help restore the empire and return the slave nations to their rightful owners.

Good! That means we can sink 100 planes at a time.

Makes no sense. A/C's are 1940-1990's era weaponry.

Now they are mostly just big ole' Submarine Targets.

Smaller. More agile. Railgun equipped. Laser equipped. THAT is the future.
