Ukraine Claims Intel on Russian Submarine Weaknesses
Ukraine claims its military intelligence agency has obtained classified information on Russia’s new Project 955A Borei-class submarine, the Knyaz Pozharsky, which entered service recently. The data includes crew lists, diagrams of survivability systems, and operational instructions, potentially revealing vulnerabilities of the submarine, a key component of Russia’s nuclear triad. The HUR, Ukraine’s military intelligence agency, published documents allegedly obtained from the breach, aiming to expose technical limitations of this advanced vessel. This operation could be a setback for the Russian Navy, especially given the submarine’s strategic importance.
