Unfortunately, I think it is fake:
Definitely fake. That's the Russian fleet. The only Russian aircraft carrier is a POS and is barely able to float.
I've heard it closely resembles a dystopian wreck from Waterworld. Half flooded, barely functional, crewed by misfits scavenging through a ruined interior for parts they can cannibalize to make their own quarters habitable.
Funny enough the chinks bought the sister ship from Ukraine a decade ago and poured millions of dollars to resurrect it. They used it as a proof of concept for their navy. And now they are turning out more carriers to rival the US.
Compared to the Russian ship and what you mentioned. It constantly has fires on it. When it was in a floating dry dock few years ago the dry dock sank with it inside. It's pretty sad from a someone that loves ships. It needs to be scrapped.
