I understand it was legitimate, necessary even. But I will still mourn. She deserved better. Fuck Putin.

As someone who loves old and historically significant machinery, the amount of history that has been lost during this war really makes me sad. Miriya the AN225, Kommuna the 110 year old vessel that has served three iterations of the Russian government, the weird radiation proof personnel transporter they lost a few weeks ago. Even all the old tanks and personnel transporters that could have ended up in the hands of collectors, it's all stuff that has been lost, and can never be regained.
I slap myself every morning because the AN225's last flight was literally from my backyard airport to Ukraine and I didn't go see it because "it was a little chilly".
What vessel?
[The 112 year old salvage ship Kommuna] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_rescue_ship_Kommuna)
After watching the video in this thread, the title sums up my feelings exactly.
Vova the museum robber
This is the one Russian ship I’m actually a little sad about being sunk. That thing just refused to die for so long.
