Engineering:Arcturus-class submarine
The Arcturus class is a planned future replacement for the Russian Borei class of ballistic missile submarines. It was announced in 2022 and is designed by Rubin Design Bureau.[1][2][3]
At the Army-2022 expo, the Rubin Design Bureau revealed a new ballistic missile submarine design, with an angled hull design, similar to the British Script error: The function "sclass" does not exist., intended to make the submarine harder to detect. The submarine will also contain 12 missile tubes, and will be able to carry the Surrogat-V AUV, which is an anti-submarine warfare drone.[4] It will also have 20% less displacement compared to current ballistic missile submarines, with a planned crew of around 100 people, and being 134 meters in length.[5]
On 21 June 2023, the Rubin Design Bureau announced that the Arcturus class would begin replacing the Borei class from 2037 onwards.[6]
