I don't know if the Walker issue is true or not so I won't include this conclusion. The improvement in sound quieting from around 1988 to 1991 was truly massive and has sparked speculation that the Walker spy ring had managed to sell information on quieting technology to the Soviets. The Improved Akula made massive improvements in quieting and is regarded as slightly quieter than a i688, which is a remarkable achievement. The improved Victor III made improvements over this and was similar to a i688. The original Akula was actually slightly noisier than an original 688, about the same as a 637. I have sources of information that were compiled by Norman Polmar which I will include that compares the sound performance of the various later generation builds to Vessels of the USN. The Akula is certainly not as quiet as a Seawolf. I have added a "dubious" tag to the claim to encourage discussion of the statement I was tempted to remove it altogether, but perhaps someone can furnish a better source than the Russian propaganda machine. The wording of the statement in the Wiki needs to be altered at least, and removed altogether at most. Jeremy Boorda, who didn't say what has been implied here), and the opinion of "some US experts," even if they exist and are verifiable, does not make it a fact. Following the link, the article says "According to some US experts, the degree of stealth of the improved sub of Project 971 has caught up with that of the US Navy multi-purpose fourth generation submarine Seawolf (SSN-21)." However, none of these experts are named (there is a reference to Adm. It is certainly not a very objective source for most things, let alone anything Russian. As a source, Pravda is about as reliable as The Onion at worst, and the National Inquirer at best (Pravda loves their Batboy-style stories). I noticed there is a claim that the Akula class is as quiet as the American Seawolf class, backed up by a citation from Pravda.

Reverse-editing and deletion of previous info that comes without explanation (at least on the talk page) can be considered as vandalism. There is NO OFFICIAL discussion about Akulas being leased to India, let alone sold.Īctually, the only OFFICIAL who spoke about it was the Indian Navy CINC (citation provided in the article), who denied it. I would politely ask all the Indian Navy fans not toġ) post unquoted, alleged, unverified info without giving a single citation,Ģ) edit quoted, verified, citation-provided edits that do not fit their own personal wishes/POV/wet dreams,ģ) making erroneous/blatantly false edits (like 900 km range for Club missiles instead of 300 km)Ĥ) putting "pseudo-citations" that, when checked, consist of some newspaper article that has nothing to do with the matter.

#AKULA CLASS SUBMARINE MOVIE#
In the movie as well as in the novel 'The hunt for red october' no Akula class attack submarine appears. The information in the *appearances in film* section is not correct: Alureiter 09:26, 30 December 2005 (UTC) Reply Does anyone know which is which? HoratioVitero 18:04, 26 August 2005 (UTC) sorry about the name issue Reply There is an inconsistancy on this page and Typhoon class submarine, this one calls the submarines with the NATO designation "typhoon" "bars" whereas the Typhoon class submarine article says that the NATO designation "akula" belongs to the "bars" class of soviet submarine.I mean we are not going around adding passages about russians spying for americans in stealing technology for Zaslon radar of Mig-31, which happened, and scandals around Shkval supercavitating torpedo, to which there are very good sources. I think I will delete the passage about Walker, until it is sourced.
