The newest submarines likely have nothing to do with Vladimir Putin suspending his country's participation in the START nuclear treaty, an expert told Newsweek.
Alexei Rakhmanov, the head of Saint Petersburg-based United Shipbuilding Corporation, announced Monday that Sevmash, Russia's largest shipbuilding corporation and the nation's only producer of nuclear-powered submarines, will provide the Russian Navy with two new submarines—the strategic Imperator Alexander III, and the multi-purpose Krasnoyarsk—by year's end.
"Sevmash has picked up a rhythm, thanks to which it is now again handing over to the customer one or two nuclear submarines a year," Rakhmanov told Russian state-run news agency RIA Novosti. Russian state media outlet Tass reported that Putin took part in the ceremony of first setting the Imperator Alexander III afloat on December 29. The Borei class submarine is capable of carrying 16 Bulava intercontinental ballistic missiles.that the subs, which will commence sea trials in June of this year, have a lower noise level, better systems for maneuvering and control at great depths, and an improved weapon control system.
Russia's President Vladimir Putin waves next to Russia's Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu and Commander-in-Chief of the Russian Navy, Admiral Nikolai Yevmenov as he takes part in the main naval parade marking the Russian Navy Day, in St. Petersburg on July 31, 2022. Russia's naval fleet will add two additional models this year, just as Putin has suspended his country's participation in a shared nuclear agreement with the U.S. and other NATO countries.
