State of the Russian Fleet:
Due to continued political, economic and societal chaos inRussia, the Fleet is in a badly deteriorated state. Even those ships that remain incommission and theoretically operational are generally unable to deploy, due to lack of trained crews and lack of funds to buy fuel and stores. In general maintenance is minimalor nonexistent, and there are no funds to conduct much-needed overhauls, even for majorfleet units. Many ships have been abandoned when repairs or refits came due.This list identifies those units believed to remain operational, but most of these units areunable to deploy for the reasons cited above. Ships in refit are listed only when there is areasonable chance of them returning to service. Ships laid up pending refit generally arelisted, as they could return to service if funding became available.Many ships, especially auxiliaries, have been operating in commercial or charter freightorpassenger service to raise operating funds. These are listed as active units, as theycould rapidly return to naval roles if required.
