Today is a significant event for us - the heavy nuclear missile cruiser Khabarovsk is being withdrawn from the slipway of the famous Sevmash. I want to thank everyone who took part in the creation of the submarine for their conscientious and high-quality work, "said Russian Defense Minister Andrei Belousov.

According to RIA Novosti, referring to the statements of the former chief of staff of the Russian Navy, Admiral Viktor Kravchenko, the Khabarovsk submarine was specially designed and built for the Poseidon nuclear underwater complex.

According to the head of state, the new principles and algorithms of Poseidon will have a significant effect in terms of improving unmanned systems.

The creators of Poseidon also had to solve specific tasks related to the management of the underwater complex. I mean the advanced materials, components and components necessary for this product, which provided high speed and a large depth of immersion - up to a thousand meters. As for the speeds, they are multiple of the speed of all modern surface ships, "Putin stressed.[1]
