I doesent matter because subs sunken by LwT = ZERO

But submarines with:

In quantities of accidents where sub was not sunk finnaly, they have also "first place" - it is sad truth.


I am big fan of soviet submarines but i think "boyancy reserve" was repercussion of huge numbers of accidents (in comparsion to "west" subs). In other hand stronger structure was necessary because they operate close to polar region.
