Russian Carrier meets US Destroyer.

SEVEROMORSK, Russian Federation (Aug. 26, 2012) The guided-missile destroyer USS Farragut (DDG 99) arrives in Severomorsk for a two-day visit after completing exercise Northern Eagle 2012. (Russian Federation navy photo by Capt. 1st rank Anatoly Romanko/Released)
If you look in the background you can see the Russian carrier I referenced in the title.  Of all the bases I thought that I would never see an American Destroyer ever visit, I think that Severomorsk would be on the top of that list.  Ain't peaceful, military to military relations grand?  Right until Russian paratroopers drop into Colorado later this year that is!  I can't wait to hear the invasion USA stories then!

    Curious, that thing needs three tugs just to maneuver in or out of that straight forward pier?

    That would make sense: the Vikramaditya participated in Russian Navy Day festivities in Severomorsk on July 29, 2012. And it looks like her.
