ok im bored so i want to see what people think about this and reasons why

What is your favorite russian boomer (SSBN) of all time?

For me its the yankee reason is its the forst soviet submarine to ever be able to fire SLBM's and also it was the first real platform to show the west that the russians could do just as good, even though technically superior western boats could track it in its later days the yankee although somewhat small for a SSBN (a russian one atleast) it still proved the russians could build a unit en par with the benjamin franklin and ethan allen classes (ie the principle of submerged launching of missiles)

Yes true the soviets had a good hand when they launched the Novembers with thier revolutionary hulls speed diving capibility but i see them as not alot better than an attack boat used to attack surface units, the american subs had far better tech inside them and could detect novembers miles off.

I have always loved SSBN's particularly the yankee not overly keen on the new borey the typhoon or deltas to be honest, most people when you mention russian submarine the hunt for red october comes to mind and also the typhoon as it is the biggest submarine in the world.

I find the yankee more of a laid back unit a unit brought in to try and equal the ballence between the soviet union and the USA and to have one of them still serving in the russian navy is remarkable since the first unit was launched in 1969!
