Submarine "Husky" surpass existing submarines in all essential parameters
Taking into account the factor of rapid development of modern (prospective) attack weapon systems in Russia, one can speak of the possibility of creating principled new complexes capable of being carriers of several of them at once. First of all, this is about cruise missiles, including hypersonic missiles of various purposes: Caliber and Zircon missiles.
After 2020, they promise to demonstrate in one form or another a variant of the Russian nuclear submarine of a new generation with a low noise level of the Husky project being developed by Malachite Design Bureau. Earlier it was reported that the "Huskies" will receive several versions of "Caliber", including the anti-submarine version. In addition, the promising Russian submarine will be equipped with impact weapons, including those required for causing irreparable damage to enemy aircraft carriers (including AUG), universal amphibious ships, missile cruisers, as well as naval bases and coastal logistics facilities.
Such shock armament becomes hypersonic "Zircon" with the ability to reach speeds up to 8 M (speeds of sound). With such weapons and the declared parameters for speed and stealth (that is, for all the main parameters), the Huskies will surpass all existing submarines.
If the promising nuclear submarines of the Husky project are also oriented as carriers of the Poseidon strategic submarines, the project turns into a real underwater military base - low noise, wide-armed.
Expert comment on the possibility of equipping the Husky with all specified types of weapons:
In fact, you need to consider the displacement of submarines of this promising project. As far as is known from open sources, it will be somewhat less than, for example, in Ash. If we talk about the possibility of turning the Husky into an underwater military base with different types of weapons and combat missions, then this, of course, is possible, but there are a number of “buts”. Comparing with the nuclear submarine "Belgorod", which exactly will receive "Poseidons", the stated displacement of the "Huskies" is still lower. Therefore, the option of "hanging" all that appeared or will appear in recent years, in the coming years, from the "defense" to the new submarine does not look appropriate. Using low noise “Huskies” to approach the same carrier-based strike groups with the possibility of striking, for example, hypersonic “Zircon” is one thing, and trying to solve many problems at once, including the use of Poseidon, is quite another. The main thing is not to overestimate the capabilities of the carrier, but to clearly define the objectives of the submarine of this project. The effectiveness of the submarine is not always related to how many different weapons it carries on its board. But there is no doubt about the final superiority of “Husky” over existing projects.
