These are Finnish and Yugoslav classes of ship primarily built under Russian specifications for the Soviet cruise lines between mid-1970s and 1990s has enough distinguishing features not to pull such foolish thicks against them. They are breaking ice most other ships are sinking upon hitting.
A destroyer ramming it is alike an egg trying to break a frying pan.

Wow! It would be stupid to mess with the ship if it were a run-of-the-mill icebreaker, such as one built by a ‘capitalist entity’, but the Soviets DID NOT mess around when it came to using steel.

The poor navy there...they never had a prayer.
