Ah, the only carrier that the Russians have. The Admiral Kunetsov. The first of two carriers that the Soviets built. This one has been in dry dock for a long time awaiting repairs and upgrades. The second carrier, only partially built, the Varyag was eventually sold to the Chinese as scrap, or use as a floating hotel/gambling ship. She now sports the Chinese colors and is their top of the line carrier. I recall watching this being built while I was in the Marine Corps working as an Intel guy.
