5051

Aircraft carrier, the Admiral Kuznetsov, lost propulsion on the way home and began drifting in the Bay of Biscay off the coast of France and Spain.

Highlights:

  • Watch the Navy tug Nikolay Chiker struggling to take the carrier under tow.
  • Watch the tow wallowing in heavy seas in front of the carrier. 
  • Watch the line-carrying projectile been fired (watch out for the smoke trail) at the tug.
  • Watch how the crew handles the towing process.
