When the construction of “Yuri Dolgoruky” started at the Sevmash yard in Severodvinsk back in November 1996, the shipyard simply took the unfinished hull of an unfinished Akula-class attach submarine and started the welding to enlarge it.

Really? Anyone confirm that? The beam of the hulls are the same, so I guess it could be true but it seems like it would be overly complex to do.
