ALT Ukrainian Navy: Reboot

[Garlicdesign]

Hello Rurik

Majestic battleships indeed, interesting blend of russian and german style.

I wonder however who they are supposed to fight, with Russia having no significant black sea ports/shipyards/docks when Ukraine is independent. There must be a monster of a Turkish Navy in your scenario!

Hi, Garlicdesign!
Thank you.
Well, ports and docks still there: Odesa, Kherson, Mykolayiv (main shipbuilding base of the Russian Empire and the Soviet Union in the real history).
P.S. And I do not have a free archipelago in the ocean as you ...
