MOSCOW, March 19 (RIA Novosti) - The Russian Navy maintains a fleet of about 60 nuclear-powered and diesel-electric submarines, a senior Navy official said on Thursday.

"These 60 vessels include 10 nuclear-powered strategic submarines, over 30 nuclear-powered attack submarines, diesel-electric submarines and special-purpose subs," the source said.

Delta-IV and Delta-III class subs form the backbone of Russia's strategic submarine fleet. They each carry 16 ballistic missiles with multiple warheads, and feature advanced electronics and noise reduction.

"The world's largest Typhoon-class submarines also remain in service with the Russian Navy," the official said.

The Dmitry Donskoy submarine has been modernized as a test platform for Russia's new Bulava missile. Two other subs, the Arkhangelsk and the Severstal, remain in reserve at a naval base in Severodvinsk in north Russia.

"They will most likely be modernized to carry new-generation sea-based cruise missiles to match the U.S. Ohio class submarines," he said.

Russia has started mooring trials of the first Borey class nuclear-powered strategic submarine, which will be equipped with Bulava sea-based ballistic missiles.

The Yury Dolgoruky submarine, built at the Sevmash plant in northern Russia, was taken out of dry dock in April 2007.

The vessel is 170 meters (580 feet) long, has a hull diameter of 13 meters (42 feet), a crew of 107, including 55 officers, maximum depth of 450 meters (about 1,500 feet) and a submerged speed of about 29 knots. It can carry up to 16 ballistic missiles and torpedoes.

Two other Borey class nuclear submarines, the Alexander Nevsky and the Vladimir Monomakh, are currently under construction at the Sevmash shipyard and are expected to be completed in 2009 and 2011. Russia is planning to build a total of eight submarines of this class by 2015.

Russia's nuclear-powered attack submarine fleet comprises vessels of the Oscar II and Akula class. Each sub is equipped with 24 SS-N-19 Shipwreck long-range anti-ship cruise missiles.

A fourth-generation Graney class nuclear-powered attack submarine will be delivered to the Russian Navy in 2010-2011. The Severodvinsk submarine combines the ability to launch a variety of long-range cruise missiles (up to 3,100 miles) with nuclear warheads, and effectively engage hostile submarines and surface warships.

"The tests of the cruise missile for the submarine are under way," the source said.

Diesel-electric submarines in the Russian Navy are represented by Kilo class vessels. They will be gradually replaced by Project 667 Lada class submarines. The sub features a new anti-sonar coating for its hull, an extended cruising range, and advanced anti-ship and anti-submarine weaponry, including Club-S cruise missile systems.

The first submarine of the Lada class, named the St. Petersburg, is undergoing sea trials and may enter service with the Russian Navy this year.

A second Lada class submarine, the Kronshtadt, which is the first in the production series, is also being built at St. Petersburg's Admiralty Shipyards and will be commissioned in 2009.

A third submarine, whose keel was laid in November 2006, is named after a city associated with Russian naval glory - Sevastopol - and is expected to be launched in 2010.

The source also said the Russian Navy has several 'special purpose' submarines designed for testing of new technologies and weaponry. Some open sources earlier reported the existence of Project 20120 B-90 Sarov diesel-electric submarine, which has a nuclear reactor as a supplementary power generator.

The vessel was commissioned in 2007 and according to some reports may be used by Russia's Northern Fleet as a spy vessel in northern waters.

Sevmash shipyard to lay down modern nuc submarine

19.03.2009, 13.38

ARKHANGELSK, March 19 (Itar-Tass) --The Sevmash military shipyard in Severodvinsk is about to lay down a new fourth-generation submarine, chief press officer of the shipyard Mikhail Starozhilov told Itar-Tass on Thursday, March 19, Russia’s Submariner Day.

He also noted a leading fourth-generation nuclear-powered, missile-carrying submarine “Yuri Dolgorukiy” (Project 955) is passing mooring exercises at the shipyard and is being prepared for a trial sea voyage.

“The Yuri Dolgorukiy is to be handed over to the Navy in 2009,” Starozhilov said.

Other submarines of this project – Alexander Nevsky and Vladimir Monomakh - are under construction.

Apart from the newest strategic missile carriers under a new project the shipyard keeps building multi-purpose nuclear submarines. The Navy expects to put into service a leading multi-purpose nuclear submarine “Severodvinsk” under Project 885 in 2010-2011.

Sevmash is the only Russian shipyard that launched the serial construction of nuclear submarines. It passed the first nuclear submarine to the Navy on December 17, 1958. During the Cold War the shipyard built 5 nuclear-powered underwater missile carriers a year. All in all, 129 nuclear submarines were built.

Ramon je u pravu....bez obzira na knjige......imaju oni jako veliku kolicinu brodova(kojekakvih)koji su vise od 20 godina trunuli po svi zivim morima u dokovima...njih je vise i "so pojela"!!!nekada su imali preko 250 podmornica,najvecu flotu na svetu,sada ne znam da li je operativno 50 kom.???

Up to 10 Russian subs at sea around world - Navy source

20/03/2009 11:52 MOSCOW, March 20 (RIA Novosti) - About 10 submarines from the Russian Navy are accomplishing various tasks throughout the world's oceans, a source in the Navy General Staff said on Friday.

"Up to 10 submarines are conducting various missions around the globe, including training and combat patrol missions with nuclear weapons on board," the source said, adding that most of them are from the Northern and the Pacific fleets.

The Russian Navy maintains a fleet of 60 nuclear-powered and diesel-electric submarines in active service, including 10 nuclear-powered strategic submarines, over 30 nuclear-powered attack submarines.

Under a new military doctrine, the nuclear triad of ballistic missiles, nuclear-powered submarines and strategic bombers will remain the core of the Russian armed forces for the next two decades.

"The Navy General Staff believe that strategic submarines will continue playing an important role in safeguarding Russia's national security because they remain one of the key components of Russia's military might and serve as a reliable deterrent to potential threats and aggression against the country," the Navy source said.

Russia has recently started mooring trials of the first Borey class nuclear-powered strategic submarine, which will be equipped with Bulava sea-based ballistic missiles.

The Yury Dolgoruky submarine, built at the Sevmash plant in northern Russia, was taken out of dry dock in April 2007.

The vessel is 170 meters (580 feet) long, has a hull diameter of 13 meters (42 feet), a crew of 107, including 55 officers, maximum depth of 450 meters (about 1,500 feet) and a submerged speed of about 29 knots. It can carry up to 16 ballistic missiles and torpedoes.

The Severodvinsk submarine combines the ability to launch a variety of long-range cruise missiles (up to 3,100 miles) with nuclear warheads, and effectively engage hostile submarines and surface warships.

The second submarine of this class is expected to enter service by 2015.

Russia is planning to completely modernize the naval component of its nuclear triad by 2016.

Kinezi pokusavaju da naprave nosac ne bi li se mogli nositi sa Amerima u slucaju Tajvana al im bas ne polazi za rukom ta tehnologija a Rusi im nisu bas voljni nesto da pomognu u tome (pametno). Imaju nosac al im nisu date i tehnika sa nosaca.

pa gde da im daju tehnologiju!!???,oni su Rusima buduci protivnici,a ne ameri!!!
