What about a new Severodvinsk class SSN

Some of us don’t create a new nickname for every forum. 😀
Mounted outward, horizontally. That’s apparently how the Pr.667AT got its NATO designation – there’s a ‘notch’ in the mid-fuselage where the missile launch tubes are located.
You could try a Google search for pictures.

Oh no, it’s the damn Meteorit. :p
What do you mean with the additional torpedo tubes? Mounted vertically? Or mounted outward?

I found it back, the S-10 Sub-launched Granat was tested from two Yankee-Notch class submarines, instead of the SLBMs. I suppose that was VLS…

No, the Pr.667AT ‘Yankee-Notch’ did not have VLS, but basically eight additional torpedo tubes mid-fuselage for 32 S-10 Granat missiles.
And actually seven submarines were rebuilt to Pr.667AT, not just two.

That would indeed be good. SO the VLS for all 24 is mounted behind the sail? Or again in two banks on both sides of the sail?
Yet it is not anymore an SSN, then it is a true SSGN.
I suppose it’ll be much more quiet than the Oscar SSGNs and might have a single screw (if it is indeed somewhat based on Akula).

dang, 24 SS-N-26s is good!

still, the Oscar II remains the baddest sub around.. no? I mean 24 Granats is nasty!

Hy,

It was reported that the Severodvinsk will be armed with 24 Oniks missiles arranged in eight triple SM-315 launchers.

I found it back, the S-10 Sub-launched Granat was tested from two Yankee-Notch class submarines, instead of the SLBMs. I suppose that was VLS…
The Ohio conversion isn’t all that new then!!
Vympel, you mean it will have only 3 Yakhont/Onyx missiles? or do you mean there will be more than just one VLS module? It is of course a very large missile and it is hard to fit it in any submarine with bow mounted torpedo tubes. The rear of the sail, that means something like the SLBMs from the Hotel class?

Each VLS will have 3 Oniks missiles, apparently. If the reports are true, that is.

That’s something new for me… So, it will become an SSGN class, more a follow on to Oscar than to Akula?
The Granat VLS is the one I was talking about. hmm, I’ll have to ask some people about that then.

I have heard that the Pr.885 Severodvinsk (YASEN) class will have P-800 Onyx fitted in the VLS to the rear of the sail. Any 3M10 Granat that may be fitted, or similar weapon, would likely still be fired through the torpedo tubes.

As I have said indeed.
As for the Kh-55 VLS. I think it has been tested from a Yankee class or a Charlie class vessel in VLS. I’m not sure about this, but I will make a search for the possible source. If it is indeed tested like that, I’m almost sure it will be on Severodvinsk.

It’s moving forward, on a rather rapid pace compared to the older speed of building. Yet, the borei class has gotten a higher priority and hence will probably be in service much faster than Severodvinsk. (although delays in the new SLBM system might delay the overall SSBN development, yet the fact that the second Borei class SSBN is being built suggests the SLBM development is going quite well too).

Delays? I doubt it. The new SLBM (SS-NX-30?) passed it’s initial throw tests earlier this year, and I have not heard ill of the program since then. You said yourself, Borey production has been stepped up, so things seem to be on track.

Yes, the Akula class and I think about every class with 650mm tubes (Sierra, Victor) are fitted (or at least capable to be fitted)for a TLAM kind of weapon. It’s the sublaunched version of Kh-55. I don’t know how many are fitted with the system though…
The Severodvinsk class was supposed to carry this missile in a VLS, like 688I class.
As for other missiles, they carry two types of SUBROC missiles, one 533mm and one 650mm version.

Are ther any Russian Subs fitted with a TLAM system such as the LA class and the British Subs have?

If so, what missiles do they use?

Yeah what about it? What specifically are you looking for mate?
