Admiral Kuznetsov on fire
Aviators used to refer to their ride in the feminine, do they now call it an "it"?https://www.iwm.org.uk/history/why-d...-have-a-gender

They/them/theirs
That should satisfy the woke mob unless of course they identifies masculine. I live in California, we’re required to know these things.

So, regarding Admiral Kuznetsov, she is a they, not an it?

With a tip of the hat to the "That is no Lady...that is. my Wife!".....who called them Aircraft Carriers?
One of the longest words in the Southern Eubonics Lexicon is “Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeiiiiiiiiiiiiittaaaaaa “
and the shortest “ mofo “
Maybe they should convert it into a floating casino and sell it to the Macau casino operators . After a new coat of paint it could join the Liaoning off the coast of Guam .

"Vessels being feminine is an English characteristic, Russia always refers to vessels in the masculine."
"We've had this argument on other threads (AT LENGTH) and the vast majority say if you're writing in English you adopt English usage and if you are writing in Russian you adopt Russian usage. You should however be aware of what the other options are"

TBH I did see the joke - I was just moaning about repeating what we've already discussed.................
I suspect the correct description of this particular ship is now scrap metal, whatever gender that is in Russian.
In English, a bell [as in Church] is traditionally "she", except if named after a male saint or martyr.
One can get away with "it" these ignorant days.
When ringing Rounds is about to start, the treble ringer shouts
"Look to!
"Treble's going!".
"She's gone!" [Followed by a series of clangs, ad infinitum]
Which raises the question of Kutznetzof's ship's bell ............
Probably stolen for scrap however.

A cute non-binary nickname for this ship could be 'Rusty'.
