The United States called the Russian submarine the most dangerous enemy of the American fleet

The second Russian submarine of the type "Severodvinsk" K-561 Kazan, which is a modified project 08851 "Yasen-M", first went to sea for testing. About this tells the edition of The National Interest.

The massive missile submarine was designed by the Malachite Design Bureau in St. Petersburg and built in the northern Russian city of Severodvinsk.

The Russian ship is expected to become the most formidable enemy submarine the United States Navy has ever encountered.

The United States Navy was already surprised by the original Severodvinsk, which is an older version (1993 of the year, commissioned in December of 2013 of the year). Shortly thereafter, in 2014, Rear Admiral Dave Johnson, who was then Chief Executive Officer of Systems Command (NAVSEA) (PEO), said that he was so impressed with the Russian submarine that he even had a “Severodvinsk” model built to demonstrate outside his office.

“We will face tough potential opponents. One only needs to look at the Severodvinsk version of the Russian nuclear submarine (SSGN). I was so impressed with this ship that I had a model created from the data that was available,” Johnson said during the 2014 Marine Submarine League symposium in Falls Church.

Later in 2016, Rear Admiral Michael Jabali, who was then Executive Director of the Navy submarine program, 8 July 2016 said that the Navy launched its Acoustic Excellence program to improve the efficiency of the Virginia-class submarine. »In response to the arrival of the Severodvinsk class.

“This is our response to the continued improvement in the quality of our competitors' submarines,” Jabali said. — The Russians have taken a significant step forward in their acoustic capabilities with the release of the Severodvinsk SSGN. We want to lead the way. We never aim to achieve acoustic parity, we always want to be better than any other country in the underwater domain."

Admiral James Foggo, now the commander of US Naval Forces in Europe, also expressed his opinion about the Russian new product. "This is a very impressive submarine," Foggo said in 2016.

Although the Severodvinsk and its more modern sister ships such as the Kazan are very distinguished submarines, Foggo said, the U.S. Navy still retains the advantage. But Russia will continue to invest in submarine research and development and will continue to build an increasingly powerful submarine fleet. “I believe we in the West still have an asymmetric advantage,” Foggo said. “I believe they will continue to improve their submarine capabilities with the goal of achieving parity with the West, including ourselves.”

Kazan is an example of Russia's efforts to improve its underwater technology. Kazan appeared to be about 10 meters shorter than its predecessor but looked poised to pack a bigger punch.

"Severodvinsk" can fight submarines, surface ships and strike ground targets. Among the most interesting features of this boat is the Irtysh-Amphora sonar system located in the bow with a large spherical antenna, as well as eight vertical missile silos located in the middle of the ship for 32 Caliber or Onyx cruise missiles. These weapons, designed to destroy ships and ground targets, gained particular significance after Russian surface ships and submarines launched these long-range missiles against targets in Syria in 2016.”
