As long as Uncle Joe got his shipments of spam and trucks I don't think he much cared about the war at sea. Since the Soviet Union was bearing the brunt of nearly all the land fighting in 1941 and 1942, Stalin really wasn't much interested in exerting himself to sweep the Arctic Sea of German bombers and U-Boats for the benefit of allies he deemed to be much more well provided with warships and naval aircraft than himself. He pretty much left the convoying duties to the US and Britain.

Now, if you could sink a Brazilian battleship, that would be cool.
