... the name of the first Project 20386 ship could be translated as Daring

EDIT

about the propulsion: kinda combination of two М90ФР (27500 hp gas turbines the Gorschkovs have/don't have :) with the electric drive using two 2200 hp electric motors ... don't know if they meant GOGLAG

I doubt the satilites are following it they kinda move to fast. but they are watching it no doubt. The Kuz though is just there as pageantry to Show the flag.

Heh! Heh!, to quote George W. Bush, I'm rather certain that you are "misunderestimating" Putin's contempt for BHO, HRC and that whole inept crew. He takes these accusations Hillary is using against Trump very seriously. Wiki Leaks are not being released by the Russian's but by Wiki, he is MAJOR PISSED! @ HRC in particular for naming him as their opposition. HRC is going to be sorry, because now he is "engaged" in actively undermining this current administration, and this is a golden opportunity to "show and tell".

The Kuz is not only travelling with the SU-33s, but the Mig 29Ks as they transition, and while there may not have many aircraft, they will take pains to place munitions on target, and their target is NO doubt those Syrian Rebels that Ambassador Stevens helped to arm-up as BHO/HRC attempted to oust Bashir Assad!

Why do you think the Russians/Syrians have hit them so many times, and while the carrier birds may only be a small part of that effort, I can assure you that there are other adequate resources to send the message!

and if HRC wins this election, this is only the beginning of Russian messages, trust me on this? I hope I'm wrong, but really, this is very basic and easy to predict.

Interesting... the number Sat. capable do maritime reconnaissance is much less important than during Cold War, have decreased as all... Russians have very few, some and China possible now severals ?
EDIT : i have do a little research 3/4 years ago not completely exact... i have 11 US Satelittes capable for it KH-11, Lacrosse etc... and 6 Russians, Yantar.

In more with different orbites even if you have 10 sat only a part can detected so few are really on the good trajectory, i think and there you can see advantage of MPA.

In addition normaly you can' t detected a submarine with a satelitte and for ice : both Sat and a MPA can't detect under compact ice, not drifting, a reason why Soviet have do a Bastion in area btw Barents Sea up to Greenland close Spitzberg, for compensate than their subs are more detectable.

In other Sov. SSBN Bastion in Okhotsk Sea protected by Kuril Islands you don' t have compact ice just drifting ice.

The Seawolf are build especialy for going in this area and track Sov. SSBNs with a big weapons load, 50 weapons coz a long distance from ports and allow more attacks before reloading, more long time in mission.
Ofc Seawolf can do other mission but designed in first for these mission.

I think even a surface ships can' t detect a submarie under ice, i mean a surface ship without enter in the ice sea close the limit and the sub in.

Yes, and you can be certain at least one serious attack boat is tailing the Russians as they cross our paths at various and sundry places! Watch the Russian "incursions" escalate as we "creep" toward this election, I would predict we will see an up tic in frequencies and intensities on many different levels with all of HRC's accusations, I would look for a few Russian bombers/fighters showing up at inconvenient places. but we'll wait and see???

For completed , what power for this Carrier Air Wing, excellent.

Seems, difficult to be sure, 2 submarines a Sierra from Northern Fleet i have see mentionned several times and a Kilo from the Black Sea Fleet.
Sierra is a little less good than Akula same weapons load for sensor surely close but a little less discret to 115/120 dB, Akula I/II than Los Angeles 688 the first 110 dB, 600 m depth max for Sierra, Akula
