“I believe that the Dmitry Donskoy nuclear submarine is a grand nuclear-powered ship.
Such a project could only be implemented by a great country.
No other fleet in the world possesses such ships and will not have such ships in the near future, ”Budnichenko said.
As the agency specifies, December 29 marks 40 years since the day when the acceptance certificate of the cruiser Dmitry Donskoy (TK-208) was signed, on which the Bulava intercontinental ballistic missiles were tested.
The nuclear submarine is currently part of the Northern Fleet.
On December 25, the Borei-A missile carrier Generalissimo Suvorov was withdrawn from the boathouse at the Sevmash enterprise in Severodvinsk.
The submarine will replenish and strengthen the Pacific Fleet's nuclear-powered submarine grouping.
