Belgorod is a modified Oscar II design. Belgorod is 604 ft long compared to 560 ft of the Ohio class SSBN. The 30,000 displacement is comparable to the Iron Duke dreadnaught from WW I.

can dive to a depth of 1,700 feet.
It can dive as deep as the ocean bed.
But it can only do it once.

That Poseidon torpedo that has a range of “thousands of miles” and a top speed of 60 knots is pretty impressive and this sub carries six of them. Oh, and each has a payload of two mega-tons of nuke excitement. Let’s see..where will the first one go?
To: C19fan
This one come with a screen door like the other ones lying at the bottom of the ocean?

No doubt this sub will have trailing company as it heads to sea. And with all it’s impressive characteristics, it makes me think back to how Russians always produce the best of everything, all you have to do is listen to their claims.
