On July 28, 2026, Russia's Sevmash shipyard in Severodvinsk floated out the nuclear-powered cruise missile submarine Ulyanovsk, the sixth Yasen-M-class (Project 885M) submarine to complete its hull construction phase. The vessel will now undergo fitting out, mooring trials, sea trials, and state acceptance trials, with delivery planned for December 2027. Russian Navy Commander-in-Chief Admiral Aleksandr Moiseyev stated the submarine is intended to join the Northern Fleet. The Yasen-M class is designed for anti-submarine warfare, anti-surface warfare, land-attack strikes, and intelligence collection, featuring torpedo tubes and vertical launch systems for Kalibr, P-800 Oniks, and potentially Tsirkon hypersonic missiles. The shipyard also laid down the ninth Yasen-M boat, Murmansk, in June 2026.
