In addition to the Leopard, the division also includes the Tiger, Vepr, Panther, Wolf, and Cheetah submarines.

"Panther" I remember , and served as even under Tsar Gorbat ...

K-317 "Panther", laid down on the slipway of the NSR - 06.11.1986/21.05.1990/27.12.1990, launched - XNUMX/XNUMX/XNUMX Commissioning - XNUMX/XNUMX/XNUMX As part of the KSF
... From 2006 to 2008, it underwent a major overhaul with modernization. At the moment in service.

"Panther" has not been sailing since 2015. The ship needs medium repairs with upgrades. Of the six leopards sailing "Gepard" and "Vepr", which passed the VTG. Also Leopard will be back soon.

Perhaps you have more recent data. I have not specifically tracked down the history of Panther.
I just saw in the article the familiar name of the boat, which I remember from my infancy, and took the information from the available open source.
But, in fact, the boat is still listed in the fleet as a combat unit, so I think that I'm not so wrong ...

[Bashkirkhan]

"Panther" is the oldest living 971x, this year celebrates its 30th anniversary. I read that you need to recharge the reactor, you need a full-fledged middle repair with the replacement of cables, pipelines, etc. Most likely the parachute will go on pins and needles

I am so old that I remember her even in the cradle, in the NSR workshop, where I had to be on duty ...

[Bashkirkhan]

Take care of yourself, health is the main thing now. And "Leopard" after a medium renovation and modernization for 10 years will not get out of the seas.

[Bashkirkhan]

Video from the event, champagne was mentally smashed.

Successful continuation of service to the ship!

Dad built all the "animals" ... I have the badges now.

[askort154]

Until the end of the year 5 days. There will also be "gifts" from the military-industrial complex, under the Christmas tree.

[Maximillian von Adelheid]

Exactly. 9 years of "repair" and 5 "days" is an excellent harmony with "successes"!

[globus]

Can you repair ships of this class?

Are these hunting boats?

Yes sir. Although they are called in more detail - "Multipurpose nuclear submarines", yet their nature is predatory ...

Nimble Beasts
And after modernization, and receiving "new fangs" - the "Caliber" CD, their grin will be even more terrifying for the enemy.

[Land defence]

Another would be completed, which is at the ASZ. It would be great. And the plant needs free stocks.

[Vladimir1155]

here's the good news

[Civil]

I didn't think they would be commissioned.

[Tiksi-3]

very good news, I'm really happy for the fleet !! , but why does she need calibers?

[Captain45]

Quote: Tiksi-3

but why does she need calibers ?, for me it's better anti-ship missiles and normal torpedoes.

So "Caliber" torpedo tubes are used as a launcher ie. In ammunition KR and torpedoes are included, the more the device is charged, the more it will fire.

They can, when everything matches! Squeeze out a couple of yachts and upgrade a few more animals.

Well, they are wringing out ... 57 lards sued by the Hodor in these international courts have broken off ... Navalny did not dump it in vain, hoping that he would break off too

[d1975]

Enough for us here about democracy and international law! Hodor is so fluffy! Blood is blood and it is proven! And the Russian Federation did not shoot down the plane, and they did not prove anything, but they were guilty and imposed sanctions. So go change diapers, you stayed too long here at the service!

I sincerely hate Hodor with anal .. What are you confusing

He who lathers clearly expresses it clearly!

Bashkirkhan, dear, thank you for the video "Stars" from the native "Stars" ...
And the picture is interesting! But at the end of workshop No. 50 SEVMASH for some reason is not in the picture, at the very bottom of the quote - a white rectangle, a black stripe - the surname of the person whose words are quoted on the walls of the workshop is smeared. As Molotovsk was renamed Severodvinsk, so a black stripe appeared on the wall of workshop 50. Although SEVMASH on its calendars has a photo "Good luck," Cheetah "!" used in huge editions. If you type on the website: www. korabel.ru Cheetah for the fleet! just that photo will be at number 1. Well, there was a large delegation of Russian officials at the withdrawal of the Cheetah from the workshop on September 17, 1999 ....
Let's hope that the fleet will receive an updated boat by the fall. Good luck and success to "Zvezdochka" and the crew in completing construction on the water and in all tests !!!

Let's hope that the fleet will receive an updated boat by autumn.

Rather at 22. Hardly before.

[Avrora17]

Previously, for such a photo, they would have shot ..))) Well, now there is freedom .. But in general, the process of rearmament is underway and Russia is no longer the same as it was in the 90s .. Well, in the economy, too, the processes are going on with the security of the state .. the tests have passed!

[globus]

And what about the firing squad?

[Alien From]

You will not deny this apple in beauty and dynamism of course!

[Connor MacLeod]

Why don't they lay down the 545 project, I don't understand? The fleet needs MAPLs urgently! Well, is it really necessary to really look for dirt on the leadership of the Fleet and turn them all over to the police?

Why not humanly? Just go and build a normal balanced Fleet? You definitely need to look for a compomat!
