Aircraft carrier “Admiral Kuznetsov” cannot be repaired after a fire/Collage 24 channel
The Russian fleet continues to be without its only aircraft carrier, Admiral Kuznetsov. And all because it will take several more years to repair it.

“Admiral Kuznetsov” was supposed to start operating in 2023
It is known that that the ship was launched back in 1985.A few years ago, the Admiral Kuznetsov was sent for repairs. It should be returned to service in 2023, but Russia still cannot cope with putting it in order. The masters involved in the repair of the aircraft carrier identified problems in its work. Therefore, it is necessary to delay the ship in the dock longer.
Note that at first it was said that the Admiral Kuznetsov would enter the water in 2021. Later, the date was shifted to 2023.
Admiral Kuznetsov broke out in 2019
At the end of 2019, it became known about a fire on the aircraft carrier Admiral Kuznetsov. On December 12, the side of the aircraft carrier caught fire. As a result, one Russian serviceman was killed and 12 more were injured.
And even during repairs, Russian craftsmen were able to finish off the ship. Last year, it was damaged when the craftsmen were repairing it. Then the floating dock that held the ship sank. Moreover, a crane also fell on the deck.
The aircraft carrier did not just become a “ship of shame”
It received this name thanks to former British Secretary of Defense Michael Fallon.
strong> In 2017, he called the Russian ship a “ship of shame”. And all because this aircraft carrier passed off the English coast and threw out clouds of black smoke.
Attacks from the Black Sea are still possible
