Akula Class / Project 971
Attack Submarine in Pictures

This section is dedicated to pictures of the 'Akula' class attack submarine.  The pictures are the property of the Foundation and were all taken at some time when the submarine was in active service.  More photos will be added as they are acquired by the Foundation.

  

A Bow View of the Akula

Here we have an excellent view of the bow of the Akula submarine.  If you look closely you can see the outlines of the torpedo tube covers.  Also visible are several of the sensor masts and several of the crew.  The photo was taken sometime between 2000 and 2002.

     

In the Cold Northern Sea

In this picture you can see several of the crewmembers of this Akula submarine moving about on the deck during the colder months of the year.

Many of the electronics and sensor masts can be seen here, as can one of the Russian naval flags.

The photo was taken sometime between 2000 and 2002.
