InFlames Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 Borei class is the most advanced Russian SSBN class with Yuri the first operational boomer and Alexander Nevsky at sea trials. 6 more are ordered and will replace Typhoon and Delta IV SSBNs.

F-32 Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 Very nice, never seen that one before. How does it compare size wise with the Typhoon out of interest? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InFlames Posted December 2, 2011 Author Share Posted December 2, 2011 Thanks for the comments everyone! hood, frakly I don't have a clue - maybe it has something to do with hydrodynamics or acoustics... or maybe it's just because from time to time, Russians do it opposite way F-32: It's pretty much the same lengthwise but much narrower - Typhoon is much much fatter. However the improved Borei class (I think last 4 subs of this class) will have 4 additional launchers (20) which will make them the longest subs in history...

Danila Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 I wonder if Hobbyboss will treat us to a Typhoon or Delta? IMHO the Delta is still more demand, at least Typhoon Dragon produces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assumed the metal work was a pier or something in the background that because of perspective seemd to be affixed to the sub... G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
