The Russian Navy will receive new strategic missile carriers of the Yasen-M project 885M and Borei-A project 955A. This was announced by Russian President Vladimir Putin.
According to him, a new Navy development strategy and a program for the construction of surface and underwater ships until 2050 are currently being prepared.
It is planned to build five more Yasen-M ships and three Borei-A ships. But this does not limit all our plans for the construction of the Armed Forces [of the Russian Federation] and the Navy.
According to the head of state, Russia has plans to build surface ships and strategic missile carriers. At the same time, there are different views, different approaches on what and how to do it.
Borei-A project submarines are double-hulled submarines: missile silos, a reactor, a crew, and turbines are located in a strong hull capable of withstanding high water pressure. Outside there is a "light" hull, giving the submarine a streamlined shape.
Yasen-M project submarines are the first ships of the fourth generation of nuclear submarines, for which fundamentally new complexes of radio-electronic weapons and automation, the main power plant and technical equipment were created.
Earlier www1.ru reported that a way has been found in Russia to make aircraft engine blades ultra-strong and heat-resistant.
