Personally, I think a couple of nuke carriers are essential for our country just for demonstration of the Flag and so on. But they mean to build SIX to have couple of them active and others refitting / repairing. Sounds nice, but I hope they would build good bases and infrastrucutre for those carriers first. And of course I hope they would build good homes for sailors and officers. So there won`t be mistakes made by builders of previous two Russian ocean fleets ( Imperial one 1880-1905 and the Soviet one 1960-1990) when they launched lot of ships without bases and infrastructure (some good and up-to-date soviet subs were decomissioned just because they couldn't have been repaired at their stations). Nice if it would be more Peter I`s and Katherine The Great`s way.

Best Regards & Good Luck
