Да уж конечно, с надводным разведчиком "Курск" не сталкивался, тут американцы говорят кристальную правду. А вот что их истребители пасут наши ракетные лодки при малейшей возможности - любой моряк вам скажет.
Ну, а сейчас конечно - морда кирпичом, глаза честные - не мы, мол.
СУКИ, угробили новенькую лодку, люди скорее всего погибли. Ненавижу.
