Why waste the money? By their very nature, ice breakers are big, fat, slow targets and would last about 10 minutes against a well armed Coastal patrol vessel or a couple of Ukraine's drones. Spend your money for arms on warships worthy of the name warship imho

I don't get the impression the Russians, who aren't shy about bolting armament to things, have armed their icebreakers to any great extent.
