Warzone/The Drive: Russian Warship Kazanets Collided With A Cargo Vessel In The Baltic Sea

The incident occurred in dense fog, but the Russian corvette reportedly had its tracking system deactivated.

A Russian Navy warship has now left Danish waters after colliding with a civilian cargo ship in the Baltic Sea. The mishap involved the Parchim-class corvette Kazanets and the Swiss-owned cargo ship Ice Rose, which is registered in the Marshall Islands.

The collision occurred yesterday, September 23, 2020, south of the five-mile Øresund Bridge that spans the strait between Denmark and Sweden. The Danish Armed Forces, or Forsvaret, announced the following day that the Kazanets had left the area and provided a photo of the damage to the Ice Rose, which subsequently headed north toward the Danish port of Odense. A large gash has been torn on the vessel’s starboard side, towards the stern, penetrating the hull above the waterline.

With an 800-ton displacement and a length of just over 236 feet, the Kazanets is dwarfed by the Ice Rose, which is over 475 feet long and which has a cargo capacity of 14,567 tons.

WNU Editor:
If the cargo ship sustained this type of damage (see above picture), I can only image what the damage on the much smaller Russian frigate Kazanets is.

Admiralty board found that the Russian officers on duty did not have the requisite navigating skills due to being foreign military exchange officers to the US Navy, where they learned about critical race theory and systemic racism instead of navigation and seamanship.

And Modern Monetary whatever it is. I'm told that for a portion of the class in MMT, a replica of nancy pelosi and joe biden's lemonade stand from childhood was used. What wasn't mentioned in the class was the failure of the fledgling business endeavor due to an inability to make change involving coins larger than a quarter.
Also not mentioned was the fact that kids' lemonade stands are being shut down in some cities these days, as I'm sure some of you are aware.

The 1st post was funny and a truthful poke at CRT. The Russian foreign exchange officer thing was of course was made up. 4:21 was not so funny, but it is Joe Biden's fault.

If it had not been so obvious that he was for sale, the Russian and Chinese would not gone that route and put more time, money, and effort into their military. They put a lot to be sure, but they would be putting more. But why, when you can buy American politicians so cheaply?

We all know cokehead, sex trafficking sons, who get caught, are worth of multi billion dollar deals with America's enemies. It is just obvious, duh!
