Ursa Major: Russian Tanker Sunk Near Spain Carrying Nuclear Reactors for Submarines to North Korea - Suchomimus

[TexasTowelie]

The M/V Ursa Major, a Russian-flagged and operated heavy-lift ship, part of Russia’s Shadow Fleet, which mysteriously sank December 2024 in the Western Mediterranean off the coast Cartagena, Spain, was possibly sunk by a torpedo and was carrying two VM-4SG Nuclear Pressurized Water Reactors (PWR) bound for North Korea, likely to be utilized for their new class of nuclear-powered submarines, Spanish authorities have told La Verdad.

6. This makes little to no sense at all. Why would Russia send nuclear reactors on a ship

to N. Korea via Spanish waters when they live next door to N. Korea.

7. the ruskies may only have one fabrication plant for "reactors"

also, they may not have wanted China to know they
were doing this. Either way, good job !

8. Keeps China out of the equation plus reactors are very heavy. Rail lines may not have handled it

10. They literally border NK on a coastline, they would not ship it around the other side of the continent

9. Putin was trading nuclear reactors for North Korean military assistance
