Ukrainian intelligence has obtained classified documents about the newest Russian submarine “Knyaz Pozharsky”

Closed internal documentation contains data on the newest Russian submarine cruiser – the K-555 “Knyaz Pozharsky” strategic nuclear submarine of project 955A Borey-A.

This was reported by the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine.

The strategic submarine “Knyaz Pozharsky” became part of the 31st submarine division of the Northern Fleet of the Russian Navy only on July 24, 2025. Its permanent base is Gadzhiyevo, Murmansk Region.

The Ukrainian military intelligence has at its disposal:

name lists of the submarine crew, including data on positions, qualifications and level of physical training;

combat instructions for the crew;

combat scheme of the ship, schemes of systems for ensuring survivability and organizational structure of the crew;

crew instructions in cabins and cockpits, instructions for transferring wounded and cargo, procedures for towing, and other job descriptions;

engineering documentation, in particular, a report on the study of a deformed radio beacon indicating the members of the commission and the enterprises that participated in the study.

The scouts also obtained an extract from the ship’s schedule book of the “Pozharsky”. This document regulates the daily combat and everyday work of the ship.

The scouts noted that the information obtained allows us to identify the features and technical limitations of not only the Prince Pozharsky, but also other submarines of project 955A, which are critically important for supporting the imperial myth of the aggressor state of Russia.

The Defense Intelligence added that the submarines of project 955A “Borey-A” are one of the key elements of the Kremlin’s so-called nuclear triad. The submarines have 16 launch pods for R-30 Bulava-30 intercontinental ballistic missiles, each of which can carry up to 10 warheads.

 As previously reported by USM, on August 2, US nuclear submarines approached Russia.
