0.5m📷 from 22 April 2024 doesn't appear to show any significant damage & she hasn't changed positions at the pier.

However, the Ropucha and 1x Krivak have moved elsewhere with the Ivan Khurs now at the Frigate pier (was in the repair bay)

An early Polaris launch from USS Observation Island (EAG-154) that did not go as planned. Observation Island was the at-sea launch test platform for Polaris & Poseidon missiles and has launched more SLBMs than any #USNavy submarine.

Excellent overview of the implications of the Kommuna likely being out of action.

Despite her age, a difficult to replace high value unit.

0.5m from 20 April 2024 (before the latest strike). Looks like 2 Krivaks, an Alexandrit Class, the Kommuna + several other vessels at the Frigate pier.

Ivan Khurs hasn't moved from her spot in the repair bay.
