Project history

These are, In effect, successors to Project 675, capable of launching the next-generation Granit missile while submerged. They were originally to have worked on the basis of US-A and US-P radar satellite data (transmitted through the Korall system antenna in their sails), but this satellite system, Legenda is now gradually collapsing. They can also obtain targeting information via a towed VLF buoy housed abaft the sail. The missiles are in tubes canted 40 degrees to the vertical, one door covering each pair. As in Projects 661 and 670, the missiles occupy the space between tye inner and outer hulls; inner hull volume must be somewhat limited (standoff is about 3.5m); reported pressure hull diameter is 8.5m. The torpedo room forward may therefore not have much greater capacity than that of a Project 671RTM.

Only two submarines were built under the Project 949, all others were laid down under modified Project 949A with one additional compartment. K-329 Belgorod, laid down in 1992, was re-laid 20.12.2012 under Project 09852 as submarine carrying 4 long-range drone submarines
