The aircraft carrier which displaces around 55,000 tonnes nearly sank.
The warship has potent firepower as it is capable of carrying 18 SU-33 and 6 MIG-29 as well as supersonic P-700 Granit missile and hypersonic Kinzhal missile but was off duty and undergoing maintenance when the disaster struck.
The vessel has been facing major issue since 2016 when black smoke was seen coming out from it, during its engagement in the Syrian conflict. The overhaul was initially slated to finish in 2020.
In this video, Defense Updates analyzes why Russia’s only aircraft carrier Admiral Kuznetsov may not be operational again?
