The restoration of the only Russian aircraft carrier "Admiral Kuznetsov" is under threat

Russia recognized the possible loss of the only aircraft carrier.

The only Russian aircraft-carrying ship, the Admiral Kuznetsov, which is currently under repair, may never return to service, despite official statements. This is due to some problems associated with the modernization and restoration of a heavy aircraft-carrying cruiser, which was confirmed at the Military Educational and Scientific Center and the Krylov State Scientific Center.

“Russian industry has so far failed to promptly carry out repairs and modernization of most large combat surface ships: cruisers, destroyers and BOD. Thus, the concept of “a new ship in the old hull” as applied to them did not materialize. This was encountered during the modernization of the Project 1164 Marshal Ustinov missile cruiser, and difficulties continue with the Admiral Kuznetsov Project 11435 heavy aircraft-carrying cruiser, as well as the Admiral Nakhimov Project 1144 heavy nuclear-powered cruiser. The modernization of the Pyotr Veliky TARK is actually actually being delayed to the right, and in the case of the RKR Moskva the shipbuilders have so far limited themselves to repairs (restoration of marching readiness) ”- transmits Mil.Press FlotProm.

It should be clarified that after the fire on the Russian aircraft carrier, there were suggestions that the Russian warship might not return to service - the cost of repairing it was very large, and the effectiveness of the use is relatively small.
