Russian aircraft carrier Admiral Kuznetsov - Wikipedia
The design of Admiral Kuznetsov-class implies a mission different from that of the United States Navy's carriers. The term used by her builders to describe the Russian ships is tyazholyy avianesushchiy kreyser (TAVKR) – "heavy aircraft-carrying cruiser" – intended to support and defend strategic missile-carrying submarines, surface ships, and naval missile-carrying aircraft of the Russian Navy.

I guess because you have no new material to offer so you’re going over old stories again knowing that your readers (like Paphitis) will be too dumb to know!
