    Hello! This is a mod that brings the Soviet/Russian aircraft carrier Admiral Kuznetsov into the game, it includes 3 configs with one of them being able to go faster than a supercar! To properly enjoy this mod, you MUST manually place the vessel in the water with either F7 or the World Editor. Please pause the game before you spawn a vehicle onto it. Sorry but you'll have to place the vehicle onto the vessel manually every time. We'd love to see your screenshots of the carrier!
    If you want to sink the ship, go into the "fun" menu, and activate break all break groups!

    Credits: Jbeam: Me(JGB), Model and Textures, @Happyhusky

    Side note, In the future, after the release of some more WIP mods, I may come back to this carrier, update it, and attempt to add an aircraft catapult.



    UPDATE 1.1=======================================================================

    Redone Jbeam and water physics

    Boat no longer spins in water, and behaves much better with only a little bit of mesh shaking on one of the side doors

    Collision is better, with less floating and clipping on the deck

    FIXED TEXTURES

    I have got the detailed textures working for both the deck and the tower
    IF TEXTURES AREN'T WORKING, RELOAD THE GAME(default is ctr+L I believe)


    Since there are less nodes in the new jbeam, the boat is slightly faster than it was, speed readings on the part slot have been updated

    THUMBNAIL IMAGE IS OUTDATED, NEW ONE MAY BE ADDED

    UPDATE 1.2=======================================================================
    Fixed the aftermarket thrusters.
    Tweaked jbeam to reduce floating on the deck
    Slightly increased steering capabilities

    AS ALWAYS, WE WOULD LOVE TO SEE SCREENSHOTS AND FEEDBACK IN THE COMMENTS BELOW!

    Quality review? from me, mid. i mean i made it so i can say anything lol. it works, it floats, it steers, you can sink it by breaking all break groups, you can land and take off from it. not much else to do lol. it has a bit of camera shake which i want to fix if i can figure out why, and as its beamng DRIVE water physics are weird lol.

    It seems to conflict with another mod. The RPM UI is gone and operation is impossible, but it's perfect as a prop!

    I dont think it can conflict wiht another mod, the rpm gui is gone because until the most recent update, which at this time is still waiting for approval, i ddidnt add the vehicle controler, which adds the gui with the ignition and stuff like that, so it should still work until that update it just wont have engine sounds or a gui. you may have to install the parts manually, the float box which makes it float, and the thrusters for moving. that is also fixed in the newer updates waiting for approval so you dont have to manually install it the config will work then.
    --- Post updated ---
    im not sure what you mean, like make it into a casino?

    i dont know if that would be something i would work on, i have other parts and projects to work on, and that would probably involve textures and im not the best at those haha.

    It was kinda meant to be a joke, I didn't really expect for you to model an entire casino.
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kuznetsov-class_aircraft_carrier

    Also it appears that the Varyag was never turned into a casino, instead ti was bought by the Chinese Navy and has been replicated by them so they now have three identical aircraft carriers, but the only originally completed one by the USSR was the Admiral Kuznetsov. Maybe you could add a Chinese skin to it?

    Or Husky could make one, as he likes making skins

    You would have to add skin system support though
