Glad to assist. At this rate, excluding Turkey, by 2028 the largest navy in the Black Sea will Romania or Bulgaria. I still wish the Romanians would gift their Kilo sub to Ukraine. Apparently it needs new batteries and a deep refit, something Turkey can do "for Romania" within the Black Sea.

The Ukrainian Navy's sub (which is still in Russian hands) is probably in better shape than the Romanian Navy's sub - but both are woefully obsolete.
