72 cruise missile submarines:

6 Oscar-class submarines

6 Yankee Notch submarines

14 Charlie-class submarines

30 Echo-class submarines

16 Juliett-class submarines

68 nuclear attack submarines:

5 Akula-class submarines

2 Sierra-class submarines

6 Alfa-class submarines

46 Victor-class submarines

6 November-class submarines

3 Yankee SSN submarine
