Russia is set to enhance its nuclear triad with the addition of two Borei AM-class strategic nuclear ballistic submarines, marking a significant step in its naval modernization efforts.
These are scheduled to have their keels laid at the Sevmash shipyard this year.
Viewers may note that the contract for the same was inked in 2021.
The two submarines will be the 11th and 12th vessels of the Borei class and the Borei-AM designation indicates that these have optimization over Borei-A which in turn is the improved version of the original one.
The Northern and Pacific fleets each are expected to have six Borey-class subs in service during this decade, including those that are under construction at this point.
In this video, Defense Updates analyzes how Russia is upgrading its undersea nuclear deterrence with two new Borei AM submarines ?
