Soviet Cruise Missile Submarines (2000)

A cruise missile submarine is a submarine that can launch guided missiles. SSGN is the United States Navy hull classification symbol for a nuclear-powered cruise missile submarine. The SS denotes "Ship, Submersible" (i.e. submarine), the G denotes "guided missile," and the N denotes "nuclear powered". Non-nuclear boats were designated SSG.

Russian/Soviet NavyThe Soviet Navy had several submarines that were called SSGNs by Western observers. These were armed with anti-ship missiles such as the SS-N-19 or land attack missiles. They were given the NATO reporting names Echo, Charlie, Papa and Oscar.[citation needed]

Today the Russian Navy operates 8-10 Oscar class submarines which carry the SS-N-19 long range anti-ship missile.
