you should give another clue,
there are hundreds of those in the world. And there is a whole company with ships that looks exactly the same
so another clue please

saltydog · « **Reply #8191 on:** November 21, 2010, 16:01:56 »

The flag isn't a clue..?

Besides, she is the worlds largest, which makes her rather unique..

The Ferry King · « **Reply #8192 on:** November 21, 2010, 16:09:34 »

is that a country flag?

cptnchris · « **Reply #8193 on:** November 21, 2010, 16:13:50 »

The Kirov class battlecruisers hold the title for the â€œlargest and most powerful surface combatant warships in the Russian Navyâ€ and the â€œlargest and most powerful non-aircraft carrier warships in the worldâ€.

Kirov Class Battlecruisers

saltydog · « **Reply #8194 on:** November 21, 2010, 16:14:48 »

Right, she is Kirov class..

The Ferry King · « **Reply #8195 on:** November 21, 2010, 16:15:15 »

finally got it!
The Russian Kirov-class battlecruiser Pyotr Velikiy (Peter the Great) - the Kirovs are the largest warships in the world, other than aircraft carriers - is sailing that way together with a destroyer escort, to conduct manoeuvres with the Venezuelan Navy. Although everyone officially denies it, it's widely believed this is a response to the US Navy's 'humanitarian relief' efforts in support of Georgia, after the recent war.

and i used this website to track the flag

Name this US Aircraft Carrier that held 2,167 men (or Spambot) That was built in 1940.

I have a book with 400 warships with 440 photographs in 480 pages Just wanted to share that... from 1860 to present day...

cptnchris · « **Reply #8199 on:** November 21, 2010, 16:25:08 »

According to that website, there is only 1,800 men able to fit on. So we will change 2,167 to 1,800 for this matter
