1 - I have pet budgies. Actually...for some reason everyone in the same Antey class all has pet budgies. I believe Oryol took care of Kursk's budgies at that time, and now still owns budgies that are descendants of them.
2 - Despite how my older brothers like to hover over me as if I can't do a thing on my own. Last year I actually won the prize of 'best submarines in PF' according to the results from missiles launching training. I sure hope they will take that into consideration that I'm not a helpless baby!
3 - Most of the time, I've conceded that I already lost the right to consider Belgorod my younger brother. I don't think it will pose much trouble for me since he will...likely be deployed in the Northern Fleet and not the Pacific Fleet where I am. So I'd expect the troubles will materialize to my older brothers there, especially to Oryol.
4 - Unlike my surface ships colleagues, submarines like us don't do 'friendly visit' thing with neighboring Asian nations. Hence surface ships from those countries are often spooked and wary of our presence. That's the downside of being submarines, your duty requires you to be shady and aloof even though deep down you're really friendly but you never get to show it to foreigners.
5 - I certainly hope there won't be any new ship in Russian Navy who will take the name Kursk. Like...leave that name on the altar and never touch it again. It'll be an insult to pass it to someone else...
