The Russian Navy unleashes its most powerful and expensive attack sub
April 3, 2017 Dmitry Litovkin, special to RBTH

Russian President Vladimir Putin's visit to the Arctic on March 30 coincided with the launch of a second Yasen class nuclear-powered multipurpose attack submarine, which is equipped with new generation missiles and can fulfill combat missions in any part of the world.


The siren emits a long wail and the nuclear submarine, the Kazan, slowly emerges from the workshop of Sevmash, 750 miles north of Moscow. This is Russia's largest shipbuilding company, home to Europe's largest building, with a workshop big enough to assemble as many as four nuclear submarines at once.
