Instead of admitting the impressive turnaround that Russia achieves with all sorts of technological projects, we have the usual BS about
"it's somebody else doing it". As if Russia can't build ships. For the hubris filled clueless: Russia can buy licensed solutions like the
rest of the developed world to save time.

to be applauded.

As reported on July 14, 2020 Shipbuilding Complex Zvezda LLC (SSK Zvezda, Bolshoy Kamen, Primorsky Krai), the company carried out an operation to install a waterproof shutter (batoport) on the construction dry dock being built. A floating structure 114 meters long and 12 meters high will separate the dock chamber, the bottom of which is located below the water level, from the water area.
The dry dock is one of the world's largest hydraulic structures with dimensions of 485х114х14 meters and a key element of the second stage of construction of the Zvezda shipyard. A dry dock allows you to build most types of existing and promising ships with virtually no limit to the tonnage and launch weight of the hulls. A unique Goliath-type crane with a lifting capacity of 1200 tons was installed at the dock, and pumping equipment that has no analogues in Russia was installed. The commissioning of the dock is scheduled for the current year.

Moscow, 7 September 2020. PAO NOVATEK announced that its joint venture Arctic LNG 2 ('Arctic LNG 2' and/or the 'Project') entered into long-term charter agreements on 14 Arc7 ice-class LNG tankers with SMART LNG (a joint venture between NOVATEK and PAO Sovcomflot), with the construction of the LNG tankers to be built at the Zvezda Shipbuilding Complex. The signing of the charter agreements allowed SMART LNG to conclude the corresponding contracts with the VEB.RF Group and Zvezda Shipbuilding Complex LLC for the construction and lease financing of these vessels.
In October 2019, the contracts for chartering, financing and construction of a pilot ice-class LNG tanker to be built at the Zvezda shipyard were signed. Earlier, the participants of Arctic LNG 2 (NOVATEK, TOTAL, CNPC, CNOOC, and the consortium of Mitsui and JOGMEC) in accordance with the Projects' Sea Transportation Strategy, approved the construction of 15 Arc7 ice-class LNG tankers at Zvezda Shipbuilding Complex.
The construction of 15 state-of-the-art ice-class gas tankers ensures the core formation of the Arctic fleet for the Project that will allow the year round transport of LNG along the Northern Sea Route to the Asian Pacific region, and provide an important stimulus to develop the Russian shipbuilding industry.
