“The wonderful series of submarines continues. The submarines for the Pacific fleet have been upgraded with the latest solutions. The Navy received another sub for the Pacific fleet,” Navy Chief-of-Staff Vice Admiral Andrey Volozhinsky said.

The Admiralty Shipyard is to build six project 636.3 submarines for the Pacific fleet. It previously built six of them for the Black Sea fleet. The project can be extended also for the Baltic fleet.
