Fire underwater is one of the worst things that can happen. Since this vessel is top-secret we (the wide public) will know what happened only some 30+ years later. And I cannot blame anyone for that - that's natural flow of things considering uniqueness and character of work of that craft. To say more - as a civil person I don't really need to know that. But what I want to be sure of - is that they had thoroughly investigated the calamity and that cadets at Navy Schools will be studying this case along with others. And of course I feel very sorry for loved ones and relatives of fourteen good guys who are on eternal patrol from now on: sadly their third toast would have a very personal sense (((

Yes, seems like it is AS 12 'Losharik' (Project 1083 1), its 'mothership' is a former Delta III with a changed back, maybe the 'Lorenburg'.
https://news.usni.org/2019/07/02/14-...lear-submarine Capable to dive to 6000 meters, due to its interior pressure-resistent ball design ('losharik' is a russian cartoon horse consisting of balls) A terrible accident, feeling sorry for the sailors and their families.

Can't imagine how terrifying a fire inside a submarine would be.
Thoughts for the families.

Great loss of top-officers and one-of-a-kind specialists. Seven Capitains of first Rank, two Heroes of Russia cavaliers. They've managed to throw out civil specialist from the burning compartment saving his life before self-locking in it. Somehow like in "72 meters" movie..

When they said the fire was in the engine room my first thoughts were, "Oh it must be a conventional submarine", but it in fact just a modified Oscar class nuclear submarine with a 100' section added in for her special underwater operations.
Catfish reported that she could dive to 6,000 meters ... I doubt that perhaps the mini sub she carried could dive that far. ![]()
