Growing up as I did during the Cold War, I always find it odd to be able to see the kind of pictures of Russian subs that NATO probably would have killed for years ago.

Nice find.

No kidding. I'm a bit suprised that these have come out already, the Russians usually like to keep things close to their vest.

It took nato from 1977 to 1996 to learn the names of the typhoon submarines it was only in 2001 that the offical list of names for the submarines including the ones from the 1950's were released to the public.

today its a bit more open.

Nice find! Having said that, I'm slightly disappointed having seen the whole thing. That's one of the ugliest subs I've seen in a long time

Superb!! That's what we're looking for, Bravo Zulu Kap and Linton.

Now let's get a proper look at her...

I like the look of this design, the area fore of the sail looks a bit more streamlined than the Deltas, although the sail is a bit further back than usual with boomers (not including the 'phoon)...and the stern of the sail looks interesting...I haven't seen that sorta thing since the days of the Foxtrots and Echos...and no bad weather conning tower windows either...that's a different idea from Russia, particularly on a flat sided conning tower, makes sense though.

I guess the area at the stern of the sail will be for the comms line, or the towed array...although that's normally a rudder or aft planes job.

Great pics!!
