章節 169: East Han Sea: Aircraft Carrier Petropavlovsk

On board His Imperial Ruthenian Majesty's Ship Aircraft Carrier Petropavlovsk. Lieutenant Rasul Rustamev was walking down the massive hangar under the deck of the ship with his helmet under his arm, offering sights of all the aircraft ranging from propeller to jet planes being tended by male and female technicians and maintenance crew.

Yes. Female crew. It was the most unbelievable thing in the world. Women on a warship.

Just three years ago, the Tsar himself along with the Tsarina pushed a bill to allow women to get into what were once men-only jobs like military, construction, and factory operations.

The bill garnered a big outcry from traditional conservative factions, protesting that women should not be allowed into high-risk jobs with both valid and stupid arguments being put forth.

Still, the bill passed the legislature in the Imperial Council by a good majority, much to the joy of the feminist factions in Ruthenia.
