JAKARTA - Russia's Borei-A-class nuclear-powered ballistic missile submarine Generalissimus Suvorov will travel to its permanent base in the Pacific Fleet in August, a source close to the Russian Ministry of Defense said.
"In August, Generalissimus Suvorov submarines will travel from the Northern Fleet to the Pacific Fleet. The journey will be carried out along the Northern Sea Route, including in a submerged position," the source said.
In January, it was reported that the second serially made submarine from the 955A (Borei-A) project, Generalissimus Suvorov, had completed a voyage from Severodvinsk to the North Fleet temporary base.
Usually, new Pacific Fleet submarines travel to their permanent base via the North Sea Route in the summer. In accordance with existing practices, the submarine is accompanied on its way by the warship task force North Fleet and Pacific in their respective responsibilities zones.
Generalissimus Suvorov is the fourth generation nuclear-powered submarine of the Borei-A project that has been upgraded (designed by the St. Petersburg-based Giant Center for Marine Engineering Design Bureau). This is the second missile-carrying submarine to be built serially from the 955A project.
The ship offers fundamentally new engineering solutions, better equipment, lower physical field levels and better security, and meets stricter import substitution requirements.
The ship's laying ceremony was held at the Sevmash shipyard on December 26, 2014. The submarine was launched from the hangar on December 25, 2021. On December 29, 2022, the submarine joined the Russian Navy.

It is known, each Borei-class submarine carries 16 ballistic missiles launched from the Bulava submarine.
Russia itself has stepped up defenses in the vast far eastern region bordering Asia-Pacific, accusing the United States of expanding its presence there and raising security concerns in Japan and across the region.
Generalismo Suvorov is intended to support the nuclear-powered submarine power of the Russian Pacific Fleet at the Rybachiy submarine base, the Kamchatka Peninsula, reported by the Russian agency earlier. The Borei Class submarine is planned to replace the previous generation of Russian ballistic missile submarines.
