time will tell if they do photo ops, after Yesterday at 9:35 PM
... technically it would be of course possible: the Peter the Great has been in Kronstadt since Wednesday at 8:43 AM
Yesterday at 8:19 AM
the Peter the Great arrived at Kronstadt only yesterday in the afternoon (half of a day later than what I was guessing Monday at 8:37 AM) according to the blogger who took the pictures:
that blogger also says didn't show up:
oops, I missed the picture of the Peter the Great posted by snake...
in Kronstadt most recently?

now noticed in Twitter they had met
Le croiseur russe Pierre le Grand a tiré 21 coups de canon pour accueillir la flotte chinoise qui revient de l'exercice Joint Sea 2017.
Translated from French by
The Russian Cruiser Grand Pierre shot 21-gun to accommodate the Chinese fleet returning from the exercise Joint Sea 2017.

yeah I just should've been browsing the next
A prominent PLA-watcher has said DDG 173 suffered a fault with one of her gas turbines, which precluded her from taking part in the exercises with Russia but had no effect on her cruising capabilities since she cruises with diesel. I don't recall how credible he is at the moment, someone pitch in and remind me if possible.
Additionally, he says DDG 173 is currently back at base, waiting for a suitable time to return to the shipyard to conduct repairs, with plans to implement small upgrades since she's going to the shipyard anyway. He also says the ship is still within warranty period so the shipyard bears full responsibility but I'm not sure if he's joking or not.
Also, nice pic of DDG 174 leading a Sino-Russo formation.

It's probably not leading as the photo looks like taken from flight deck of another ship
But it's indeed a good photo.It's probably not leading as the photo looks like taken from flight deck of another ship
True, forgot about that.
Also, surprise, surprise. A non-snarky at-least-double-digit IQ comment from you.
