Missiles “Caliber” can be put into service with all Russian submarines

All Russian submarines, including strategic ones, can be armed with Kalibr cruise missiles. This was announced by the Commander-in-Chief of the Russian Navy, Admiral Nikolai Evmenov.

“The tests of the Caliber cruise missiles were carried out on second-generation submarines. And today, almost all active submarines, including strategic submarines, can be armed with them, ”said Mr. Evmenov in an interview. “A red star”. He added that the next step would be to equip the submarines with hypersonic missile weapons.

Now Caliber missiles are equipped with non-nuclear submarines of project 636.3, which are part of the Black Sea and Pacific fleets. They are also armed with some multi-purpose nuclear submarines.
