The media has not yet received official confirmation of this information.
Earlier, the General Director of the United Shipbuilding Corporation (USC) Alexei Rakhmanov announced plans to reduce the production time of nuclear submarines. At the moment it takes about seven years.

Armament for special submarines is also being prepared. So, recently the TASS agency, citing a source, stated that the first batch of Poseidon torpedoes for the nuclear submarine Belgorod had already been produced. This means of destruction is also called "Weapon Doomsday." It is believed that it is impossible to intercept anything.
The Belgorod submarine was handed over to the Russian Navy last summer. So far, she does not have a main weapon on board and is undergoing a trial operation as part of the Northern Fleet.
