"Kazan", the lead multipurpose nuclear submarine of the modernized project 885M (code "Yasen-M"), returned to Severomorsk after the next stage of sea trials in the White Sea. This was announced on Tuesday, September 8, at the press service of the Northern Fleet.
According to representatives of the Northern Fleet, during the exit to the sea, the submarine's crew spent sailing on the surface and underwater, worked out the elements of the task of the combat training course, and also measured a number of technical parameters of the nuclear submarine, in particular, the noise when moving underwater.

It should be reminded that construction of Kazan began at Sevmash in 2009. In the spring of 2017, she was taken out of the boathouse and launched . The transfer of the submarine to the fleet was planned for 2018, but then it was postponed to 2019 .
In the spring of 2019, Alexei Rakhmanov said that during the first stage of the Kazan sea trials, the project's shortcomings were discovered, and in October he stated that the delivery of the Kazan was postponed to the next year .
At the beginning of June this year , information appeared in the pressthat state tests of "Kazan" will begin in the fall and will require at least two months. Because of this, there is a possibility that the transfer of the submarine to the fleet can be postponed until 2021. Later, the head of the USC, Alexei Rakhmanov, said that the submarine should be commissioned by the end of December.
According to the improved project 885M, the submarines Novosibirsk, Krasnoyarsk, Arkhangelsk, Perm and Ulyanovsk are also being built at Sevmash.

The surface displacement of the Yasen-class multipurpose nuclear submarines is 8600 tons, the underwater displacement is 13800 tons. They can dive to a depth of 600 meters and reach speeds of up to 30 knots under water. The project uses a mixed design system - a light hull fits only a part of the strong hull in the bow area of the boat to reduce noise.
For the first time in domestic shipbuilding, torpedo tubes were placed not on the bow, but behind the compartment of the central post. "Ash" is armed with cruise missiles "Onyx" and "Caliber", homing 533-mm torpedoes. In the future, they will be able to use the Zircon hypersonic anti-ship missiles.
