Are we saying the money for the planes was embezzled or am I missing the joke

Yes

No, they turn into fighter jets, Macross style.

Wouldn't be so optimistic about one on the left.

Too much mold to my liking and interior is pretty tasteless.

Here's a documentary about it, with English captions. I highly recommended watching.

The interior is conventional expansive Russian tzar stile. It is about power projection, not pleasantries.

I don't speak Russian, but I checked out the transcript because it auto translates. Started reading through that then said what the hell and just decided to watch it

I only got about 15 minutes into it, but I'll absolutely be watching the whole thing. Thanks for the link!
