New underwater strategic missile carrier will be built in Russia

Vilnit, General Director of Rubin Central Design Bureau: design work has already begun

The Central Design Bureau for Marine Engineering (CDB ME) "Rubin" is conducting design work to create a new generation of submarines that will become part of the Russian Navy. This was announced by the General Director of the enterprise, Igor Vilnit.

This is not a "Borei", not a "Borei-A", not a "Lada". These are the next ships that we are conceiving today. Both strategic missile carriers and non-nuclear submarines.

Military expert Dmitry Kornev stated that in 2026, the nuclear submarine "Khabarovsk" of project 09851 should begin sea trials — a promising carrier of unmanned underwater vehicles "Poseidon".

In addition, the Navy will also strengthen its strike capabilities with the underwater version of the Zircon missile. The first carrier will be the Perm nuclear submarine of the Yasen-M project, after which hypersonic weapons will be received by other cruisers of this type.
