Typhoon - the largest submarine ever

[@johnlancaster119]

Spent 30 years of my life in boats. Whether East or West, irrespective of country or belief, all men who sailed in them were of a special breed. Best times, best friends and best memories. When I left the RN I went to live in Russia for three years and was fortunate to meet many of the guys who were in their boats. The Calibre of their submariner was no different to that of ours. At the end of the day, we were all brothers joined by a common bond and respect for each other. Veteran RN Submarine Warrant Officer

The missile explosion had blown a huge hole in the top of the sub, which the crew could see from the conning tower after they surfaced. The liquid propellant of the missile caught fire and was spreading rapidly toward the remaining 19 nuclear missiles after the boat surfaced. The captain ordered an immediate emergency dive, letting the crew know that much of the boat was going to flood because of the huge hole. They submerged, putting out the fire, then immediately re-surfaced. This saved the boat. Since this incident was an embarrassment to Russia, it was hushed up and the skipper of the boat never got the recognition that he probably deserved.

The old USSR was home to large deposits of ilmenite and rutile ores in Ukraine and even today Russia and Kazakhstan alongside Japan produce 99% of the titanium used in the USA. The titanium significantly reduced the boat's MAD (Magnetic Anomaly Detection) signature too. More importantly the "941 class" (Typhoon) was designed from the outset to be almost equal to the striking power of the Ohio class of the USN. They were however also designed to be incredibly survivable and incredibly difficult to put out of action; as the Soviets couldn't build a quiet submarine they couldn't rely on staying hidden to achieve the ballistic missile submarine's raison d'etre of an unstoppable overwhelming retaliatory strike. Most people don't realise that by the late 70s the NATO navies were able to track, identify and assign "hunter killer" submarines tp every single Soviet ballistic missile submarine, in fact there would be an unholy flap on if just one Soviet "boomer" managed to evade detection fir even a few hours. It is estimated that within about 15 minutes of the Cold War going hot every single Soviet missile boat would have been engaged and destroyed. Although this seems laudable and even desirable during an armed conflict and even had the potential to stop a conflict escalating from conventional to nuclear (by removing the Warsaw Pact's ability to launch a guaranteed second or third strike) it fundamentally unbalanced the doctrine of Mutual Assured Destruction, although it was purely a defensive strategy to only be undertaken in the event of hostilities it could be seen as NATO having the capability to launch a pre-emptive strike which would be so effective that the USSR would not be able to deter limited nuclear strikes against it's conventional forces with the threat of unstoppable escalation. To this end the Typhoon (941, Akula) was created, it's primary offensive armament it's SLBMs were located between it's twin pressure hulls, with the torpedo compartment (3rd) pressure hull in the bow and the engineering sections toward the stern they were effectively cocooned from external attack by torpedo, it is widely believed that the SLBM fail safe firing systems were located outside the pressure hulls too. A Typhoon could remain at firing depth and continue to launch it's missiles while taking multiple (Mk 48 or ****fish) torpedo hits, all the pressure hulls could flood, the entire crew could be dead and the system would continue to fire. Titanium really was the only option.

[@ephapax1]

Stephen Hick if what you said is true, particularly the part about the crew being dead and the boat’s compartments flooding yet still being able to shoot the nukes, then this sub was truly a modern marvel.

[@mdokuch96]

@@ephapax1 can't comment of survivability of the sub (though, the bigger the ship - the harder it is to get it sunk), but the intention of this sumbarine was also the ability to carry missiles capable to reach the territory of "potential enemy" (USA) even when fired from the base, right on the park near pier. Idea was that in case of Cold War going hot really on sudden, the submarines which weren't hanging somewhere in Atlantic/Pacific/Arctic wouldn't have enough time to gather full crew and leave the base before incoming nuclear strike on that base. Typhoon didn't need this in fact - if it was on the base that moment, and the alarm for the started war and incoming ICBM strike goes off, even shortened crew just launches the full missile salvo and can happily die with their duty done.

And I'm truly astonished by the sheer size and power of the Typhoon class submarine, must feel like a waste for the USSR to have never used it in combat, but at least it served its purpose by deterring other countries from attacking the USSR during its commission.

[@constantdarkfog49]

Yes, very scary stuff, hope they are never used.

[@piotrd.4850]

Belogrod is (or - might be ) finally finished proj. 949A (like Kursk) given SSN-23 Jimmy Carter treatment - additional section of the hull. Actually, proj. 949 were far more numerous, almost as big, and possibly even more complex and expensive. They basically shared same built pattern, though for different armament and different purpose. Belogrod, with additonal 10-12 meters would indeed be larger.

@Return of the Native the only vessel by the name "Red October" was a steam riverboat built in 1911 and renamed after the revolution. There were never a destroyer "that went rogue". The only vessel in Soviet history that went rogue was Storozhevoy frigate where the ship's politruk wanted to start the Second Communist revolution.
