Resurrecting one of my older threads again.
This time it's a horror story, short🧵:
1. Soviet submarine K-320 was a Project 670 Skat/Charlie I-class nuclear-powered, guided missile submarine (SSGN). Designed by the famous Lazurit design bureau, Charlie-class submarines were made to carry out surprise attacks on the Western/NATO high-value naval assets such as the aircraft carriers and CSG components.
