It’s not for the pitiful boys to offend our “Kuzya”

Shchastya fell into a saucepan-headed spilnot. Having seen in the video and pictures the Russian aircraft-carrying cruiser Admiral Kuznetsov, smoking like hell from the beginning of the XNUMXth century, passing through the English Channel, the shavarniks began to squeal with joy. The sofa army, capable only of dreaming about dumplings flying into the mouth according to the method of Gogol’s Patsyuk, does not skimp on derogatory epithets, expertly speaking about what a terrible crap this “Kuzya” is, how killed, retarded and crawled out of somewhere last strength. Well, and other nonsense copied from themselves, hand-assed and empty-headed.

As usual, laughter for no reason is a sign of incomplete secondary education, even among experts with college degrees. To the great Ukrainians, that means it’s funny. But for the British, not so much. They, as a naval power, are not bothered by the cap of smoke over the Admiral Kuznetsov aircraft carrier, since many in the UK know the performance characteristics of our cruiser. And if a journalist doesn’t know, he can get a qualified certificate by contacting the PR department of the Admiralty or simply from Google. For Ukropans, the habit of sitting down in a puddle on a grand scale and neighing while the mud flows around them has long and firmly become a national sport.

So. What was so funny about the thick black smoke above the Admiral Kuznetsov? Absolutely nothing. This is a feature of the TAKR propulsion system. Kuznetsov, as is known, does not have a nuclear power plant. Since its birth, it has been equipped with a boiler-turbine power plant with a total power of 200 thousand hp. This means that the cruiser’s propulsion system can normally be powered by both diesel fuel and fuel oil. That's how it was designed in the Soviet Union. Fuel oil smokes when burned - die laughing! This is a combat ship, not a passenger cruise ship with a multi-stage exhaust cleaning system.

Rumor has it that if necessary, “Kuznetsov” can go on campaigns using coal and kick some ass. Thus, as Arkady Raikin said, “should you take checkers or go”?

As you know, “Kuznetsov” set off to carry out a combat mission to the shores of Syria. The path is not short, bypassing Europe. The question arises: why burn expensive diesel fuel if on a long trip you can easily get by with inexpensive fuel oil? Moreover, the power system allows: what problems, hulks?

Serious people serve in the department of Army General Shoigu; they don’t show off and don’t burn diesel in vain. These are your warriors, if it were their will, all military equipment would be converted to dung and straw, and everything that is more expensive than dung would be sold to anyone who would pay. And at the same time, they would be trumpeting on all corners about the latest developments and unheard-of powers.

I’ll reveal the last secret of the smoke cap over “Kuznetsov” for the pan-heads. When necessary, Kuznetsov boilers are capable of burning fuel oil with virtually no fume emissions, using increased air supply to the furnace. But the TAKR was going - where? That's right, the English Channel. Past the French and British coasts. Therefore, smoke above a ship is also an identification mark for friends and foes. In maritime countries they know about this and do not roll their eyes with idiotic laughter when they see a smoking warship. Or do you think that American or British ships do not smoke and burn environmentally friendly biodiesel in their fireboxes? Well, they smoke, because they can also burn fuel oil in the furnaces. Let's laugh at them together? The luminous Jedi, too, apparently, cut through the sea-oceans with all sorts of junk?

For example. Just google to find a gorgeous photo from February 2016: the lead ship of the LCS-1 USS “Freedom” is approaching the San Diego naval base, leaving behind a greasy trail of smoke, either from burnt cracklings or from holey socks burned in the firebox. What is characteristic is that it approaches without hiding, against the backdrop of skyscrapers. And nowhere to be seen are the crowds grinning and pointing their fingers at this naval misunderstanding. This is not the old Kuzya, which survived the hardest times of the 90s, but the newest ship of the US Navy.

By the way, what kind of people from Atlantis with holey trousers, from which all the shame is visible, are they making fun of our “Kuzey”? Can you present to the public a Ukrainian aircraft-carrying cruiser? Shaw, no? Or just a more or less modern warship in constant combat readiness? Has your flagship “Hetman Saiga Dachny” already come to life? But last summer he was embarrassed and did not show up for joint naval exercises with NATO chiefs due to a serious and long-term illness. Why don't you laugh, you jumping pots?

The quintessence of the Ukrainian Navy in “good times” is the unfortunate submarine “Zaporozhye”. The one that could cleverly deceive the enemy by turning her belly upside down. However, no. Ukrainian naval commanders were never able to save enough money for the boat to purchase enough lithium batteries for mobile phones. So this miracle traveled either on the surface or at periscope depth with a snorkel. But with a snorkel, you can’t perform a belly flip without serious consequences.

Let's wrinkle our brains and analyze - what high technologies in military equipment can Ukrop boast of at the present time? For some reason, the only things that come to mind are cracked Dozor armored fighting vehicles and hybrid garbage trucks with a minibus, hung with roofing iron. Well, is it funny?

And then, we can also recall how one great maritime and space power sold to China, at the price of scrap metal, almost 70% of the built TAKR “Varyag”, which now proudly displays the flag of the People’s Republic of China called “Liaoning” to different shores. Why doesn’t Ukraine display its flag on foreign shores, but only paint fences and women’s asses in national colors? Or is it true that evil tongues say that Lyonya Kravchuk, when he was a Ukroprezik, received swag from interested parties in the West so that “Varyag” would remain in a bitten state?

Have they spoiled the Soviet military and industrial heritage? Are you begging for defense with your hand outstretched? Are you squeezing hryvnias from the population with all sorts of extortions? Did “some car washers” hit you with cabbage soup? Well, sit quietly, slamming your bread slicers shut. Our “Kuzya” is none of your business. Learn materiel the real way.
