The Strange Warship No One Wanted to See - But Could Be Spotted 100 Miles Out

The smoke is visible from almost 100 miles away. Not from an attack or damage, but from Russia's flagship aircraft carrier—simply trying to move forward. This is Admiral Kuznetsov, the pride of Russia's Navy, leaving a trail like a slug across every ocean it limps through. For decades, it has suffered through disasters and countless indignities. But now, in 2016, Admiral Kuznetsov is ready for war! Su-33 fighter jets line its deck as it steams toward its first actual combat mission in Syria. The Kremlin has staked Russia's naval prestige on this deployment, a chance to finally prove the carrier's worth after years of embarrassment. And the brave scene may have worked if not for one tiny detail. Following in the wake of the mighty ship was something most unusual. Not an escorting battleship, not a shielding destroyer, but instead… a happy little tugboat? Russia's only aircraft carrier might need some help getting home.
