The 5,400-ton Admiral Gorshkov is the largest surface combatant to be built by Russia since the collapse of the Soviet Union.

=/=

So after twenty-seven years the Russian navy is having a new ship built; yes the Soviet Union collapsed in December 1991. That is a long time for shipyards to be without building new ships, even allowing for overhauls etc one must wonder how many of the work force are still there.

The Russians have built many ships since 1991. The Admiral Gorshkov is the largest one.
