When the Tweet was hit with a community note, they yanked it. Also, the revenue of Haltbakk Bunkers was a whooping $1.6M in 2023. Some “fuel giant”.

chill_brudda on March 2, 2025 1:44 pm Nuclear power submarines only need to be refueled every couple of decades. As in they can run for over 30 years without fuel. The USS Virginia was commissioned in 2004, should have another decade before needing fuel This seems like optics/politics.
