Post #281 Interesting. That hardly seems credible. The last position I saw for Moskva pre sinking (and more or less corroborated by my single AIS view of tugs and special vessels) was all of a third of that distance from Odessa. An air superiority asset would surely be of no use that far from theatre?
The location of that AIS plot I saw (once but couldn't repeat) was roughly where the magenta dot is just S of odessa. It now seems to be labelled "high speed craft".

There's no way on earth jackups are positioned where the above post suggests, water is FAR too deep.m.

Addendum.
As per the post below that is as far as I can tell exactly where I saw the last pre-sinking posn. of the Moskva and corroborated by the AIS plot of tugs and special vessels. In around 100m of water only.
