Peter the Great (submarine)

Peter the Great is a Russian nuclear-powered submarine named after the 18th-century Russian tsar known for modernizing Russia. Launching in 1989, it belongs to the Typhoon class, the largest submarines ever built, capable of carrying ballistic missiles. Designed for strategic nuclear deterrence, Peter the Great operates below the ocean's surface for extended periods, silently delivering powerful weapons if needed. Its advanced technology allows it to remain undetected, ensuring Russia's maritime defense and strategic stability during the Cold War and beyond.
