The solemn ceremony of launching the large diesel-electric submarine "Yakutsk" (project 636 "Varshavyanka") took place at the Admiralty Shipyards (part of USC), the corporation's press service reported.
After launching, a number of additional works will be carried out on the submarine. Next, "Yakutsk" will undergo mooring, factory sea and state tests.
All tactical and technical characteristics embedded in the ship by the designer, all combat capabilities and combat potential have been confirmed.
"Yakutsk" is the sixth submarine of the 636 series, which was laid down in St. Petersburg in 2021. The submarine will join the Pacific Fleet. Five submarines of the project: "Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky", "Volkhov", "Magadan", "Ufa" and "Mozhaisk" are successfully carrying out combat service.
According to the USC press service, the Varshavyanka-class submarines have a higher combat effectiveness compared to submarines of other projects. They combine acoustic stealth and target detection range.
Submarines of project 636 received the latest inertial navigation system, a modern automated information and control system. At the same time, high-speed torpedo-missile armament provides these submarines with an advantage in their class.
The "Varshavyanka" submarines are feared in the West and are called "black holes".
