"Süddeutsche Zeitung wrote that if the shavings hadn't been detected during an inspection, they would have caused significant damage to the ship."

So there was no damage. How convenient indeed that there happened to be an inspection.

You do realize that inspection of such a vessel is done on a daily basis or higher frequency, right?

You don't just say yolo flip the switch and ignite the engines for a multi million dollar vessel, it's a multiple step process that contains lots of safety checks and precautions, which one of them would be visual inspection for debris.

Do you think Russia realizes this? If it's obvious to you, it would be obvious to them.

[mupuff1234]

Of course it's obvious to them, it doesn't make it any less serious.

That would be like saying blowing up an airport runaway isn't serious because you can obviously tell the runaway is faulty - so no harm done!

Err, I would have agreed with you before this war lmao, and after learning russia military history they frequently don't inspect shit
