Russia says its building new sub fleet

Quote
MOSCOW, July 29 (UPI) -- A next-generation submarine will enter service with the Russian Northern Fleet in the foreseeable future, the country's naval commander says.

The submarine "is expected to join the Northern Fleet a little later than we would like it to be the case, but in the very near future," Adm. Vladimir Masorin said. He said construction of the submarine was nearing completion, Novosti reported Saturday.

He said Wednesday sea trials of a new nuclear missile submarine were scheduled for 2007.

The Yury Dolgoruky, a Borey-class nuclear missile submarine, is being built at the Sevmash plant in the northern Arkhangelsk Region, Novosti said. It will be equipped with the Bulava ballistic missile, which is adapted from the Topol-M (SS-27).

President Vladimir Putin said in March a fourth-generation submarine armed with Bulava missiles would form the core of an entire fleet of modern submarines.

He said Russia's submarine fleet was a major instrument of Russia's defense policy.



IIRC, they're selling a lot of quality sub technology to China as well.

Found the Russian Submarine hymm too!

A Russian Submarine

(Sung to the tune of the song "Yellow Submarine")

 In the town,
 Where I was born...
 Lived a man,
 With PhD...
 And he told,
 Us of his job...
 Making faulty,
 Submarines...
 So we sailed,
 Up to the north...
 Till we found,
 The Barents Sea...
 And we sank,
 Beneath the waves...
 In our Russian,
 Submarine...

 We all drowned in a Russian Submarine,
 A Russian Submarine,
 A Russian Submarine.
 We all drowned in a Russian Submarine,
 A Russian Submarine,
 A Russian Submarine.

 Casualties,
 Jump by the score...
 As we hit,
 The ocean floor...
 And the air,
 Begins to fade...

 We all drowned in a Russian Submarine,
 A Russian Submarine,
 A Russian Submarine.
 We all drowned in a Russian Submarine,
 A Russian Submarine,
 A Russian Submarine.

 Radiation,
 Makes us hot...
 Hypothermia,
 Makes us not...
 Turning blue,
 And glowing green...
 In our Russian,
 Submarine...

 We all drowned in a Russian Submarine,
 A Russian Submarine,
 A Russian Submarine.
 We all drowned in a Russian Submarine,
 A Russian Submarine,
 A Russian Submarine.

Amazing how quiet they are, very graceful and when level very hard to see.

It was a memory I'll never forget.

Just a few years ago they had a b2 fly at the Air Show in Toronto; It was very impressive. What impressed me more was the b1b. (one of the two loudest a/c I've ever heard)
