Russia Test-Fires Bulava Missile Across the Country From Borei-A Nuclear Submarine in Sea of Okhotsk
Russia’s Pacific Fleet submarine Generalissimo Suvorov test-fired a Bulava submarine-launched ballistic missile from a submerged position in the Sea of Okhotsk toward the Chizha range in the Arkhangelsk region. The Russian Defence Ministry announced the firing on October 28, describing it as part of the crew’s scheduled combat training. According to the ministry, monitoring data showed that the missile’s warheads reached the designated target area at the expected time. The Project 955A Borei-A nuclear-powered submarine carries 16 Bulava missiles and previously conducted a state-trials launch in November 2022 before entering naval service the following month.
