After the outbreak of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, the war situation was not as quick as the outside world, but fell into a long war of attrition. The performance of the Russian army has been questioned somewhat, however, their ** equipment has performed well on the battlefield, including "Iskander" tactical ballistic missiles, Su-35 fighters, R-37M long-range air-to-air missiles, etc. Recently, the Russian Navy has installed a Yasen-class attack nuclear submarine, which once again demonstrates Russia's deep strength in the field of military industry.
One of the two strategic nuclear submarines of the Boreas-class of the Russian Navy is the 955 basic type, and the other is an improved version of the 955A type. The two models have noticeable differences in appearance, and the Russian Navy has managed to build them in parallel. As the latest strategic nuclear submarine, the "Boreas" class is comparable to the "Ohio" class of the US Navy, with an underwater displacement of up to 2It is 40,000 tons, carrying 16 "Bulava" submarine-launched intercontinental ballistic missiles with a range of more than 8,000 kilometers, and has a strong nuclear deterrent capability.
The Russian Navy's deep technological heritage is rooted in the Soviet era, especially in the field of nuclear submarines. Although the Soviet period lagged behind in terms of surface ships and air defense destroyers, its nuclear submarine forces have always been ahead of the United States. This development concept continues to this day, and Russia continues to pay attention to the research and development and construction of submarines, and has achieved the "Boreas" class strategic nuclear submarine, a new type of boat that shocks the world.
Compared with the current Chinese Type 094 strategic nuclear submarine, although there is a gap in performance, China's new generation of strategic nuclear submarine is about to be unveiled, its underwater displacement is expected to exceed 15,000 tons, equipped with a new model of submarine-launched intercontinental missiles. The U.S. military's analysis of China's new generation of strategic nuclear submarines believes that its performance will surpass that of the Type 094 in an all-round way, showing the rapid rise of China's submarine technology.
However, it is worth noting that our country pursues a policy of "no first use of nuclear **", and the advancement of a new generation of strategic nuclear submarines does not imply a threat to other countries. On the contrary, it will provide strong support for our country to win more respect in the international arena. Despite Russia's demonstration of its deep military-industrial strength, China's development momentum should not be underestimated, and in the future, the competition between the two countries in the field of submarines will become a bright spot in the development of armaments.
Overall, the development of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict has brought Russia's military power back into the spotlight, especially its outstanding performance in the field of nuclear submarines. However, China, as a rising power, also shows strong potential in the development of a new generation of strategic nuclear submarines, and future competition will bring new variables to the world's military landscape.
