no, no, no, no!!!!
a ship is a ship,...
a boat is a boat,...
a barge is a barge,...
it's a barge,...
and in typical Russian style, THIS was the pre-reality picture:

the USN already has LHA, LPD,LSD and LHDs galore,...
FEMA shipped multiple 50 MW "portable" TG sets to Puerto Rico,...

the Russian barge although interesting, only puts out 70 MW,...
pretty limited use scenarios, Puerto Rico hardly qualifies,...
