It's currently in airport configuration, cause they had to haul that shit onto land to fix it. They don't have any drydocks larger enough and their special made floating drydock sank while the firecraft carrier was undergoing repairs.

You forgot the part where said drydock caught fire and fell over before sinking.

Some might assume that's implied but I think the mental image is incomplete without it.

It really was incomplete, it makes it even better if you add some sound effects to it in your head, not realistic one, something from a bugs bunny cartoon, but then again, that works with most things to do with Russia.
