General Director of the Central Design Bureau of Marine Equipment (CKB MT) “Rubin” Igor Vilnit in an interview with the Russian Gazette opened the state of a heavy atomic missile submarine cruiser of the Strategic Appointment TK-208 “Dmitry Donskoy” project 941 “Shark”.
Head recalled that at present TK-208 “Dmitry Donskoy” “provides tests for its more modern fellow.” “Now it is in good technical condition, however, the service life of any ship although it is longer, but still, unfortunately, limited,” said the head.
According to him, the further fate of the submarine will determine the fleet. “This is a unique submarine, which our general designer Sergey Nikitich Kovalev due to the peculiarities of its design rightly called the most reliable in the world,” said Vilnit.
In September, the Deputy General Director of the TsKB MT “Rubin” Andrei Baranov spoke about the advantages of submarines of projects 636 and 877. According to him, these submarines are called black holes due to acoustic low-noise. Warshowyanka type boats received low-speed rowing equipment, which improves the speaker of the submarines.
