Russian submarine Kazan (K-561)

K-561 Kazan is a Yasen-class nuclear-powered attack submarine of the Russian Navy. It is the second boat of the project, separated from the first by 16 years (1993–2009). Considerable changes were made to the initial design. Differences in the project have appeared sufficient to consider it as a new upgraded version Yasen-M. The submarine is named after the city of Kazan. The submarine is deployed with the Russian Northern Fleet.
