And while it is not known exactly how long it will take to ship the number 1 back on a trick to naval school. In the meantime, do everything in the photo background empty promenade.

The first in line – the so-called deffektatsiya body. Specialists will align all dents and seal cracks. And after inflict on almost 3000 square meters of a fresh coat of the original, gray paint. Check valves, an equally important part of the ship, because the water has to flow into the ship for cooling devices.

However, the exposure will be dramatically different, “red” rhetoric will give way to the history of the fleet as a whole. On an example of it one of the brightest pages – the cruiser “Aurora».
