There is no USSR anymore, but it doesn't change anything. Russia is the only post-USSR country that have all the nuclear potential of Soviet Union. Everything doesn't matter.

One nuke - one carrier. Easy arithmetic, isn't it? According to the US sources, only one old good battle cruiser like "Moskva" equipped with
Granit is able to destroy at least two aircraft carriers.
