MEGA SUB! World’s BIGGEST SUBMARINE ever constructed! (Soviet Typhoon/Akula Class Submarine.)



MEGA SUB! World’s BIGGEST SUBMARINE ever constructed! (Soviet Typhoon/Akula Class Submarine.) This is the legendary Akula class submarine (the biggest in the world) that inspired the book and movie, The Hunt for Red October. Constructed by the U.S.S.R and first deployed in 1981, this gigantic, nuclear-powered submarine is the biggest ever made. Known by NATO as the Typhoon, it measures 175 meters in length (that’s about 570 feet) and displaces a whopping 48,000 tons when submerged. Its twin pressurized-water nuclear reactors produce 255,000 thousand horse-power, each, so it can travel quietly at over 50 kilometres per hour. Designed to operate for months on end beneath the polar icecap, the Typhoon is armed with 20 nuclear ballistic missiles, each equipped with 10 multiple re-entry vehicle warheads. This means that the ice-breaking Typhoon can single-handedly shower a Western opponent with 200 nuclear warheads. Six of these devastating Cold-War-era machines were built, thankfully, due their age and budget constraints; there remains only one Typhoon in active service. ***The Music*** -- called "Hitman" -- was composed by the benevolent, very talented, internet legend, Mr. Kevin MacLeod of Incompetech: http://incompetech.com/music/royalty-free/index.html?isrc=USUAN1300013

  11. FYI:

    The Soviet Akula project 941, Typhoon to NATO, is a 'Boomer' (Sub Launched Ballistic Missile carrier).

    The Soviet Pike project 971, to add to the confusion, is an Attack Submarine (Counter-Submarine Sub) and is designated Akula by NATO.
