Soviet_naval_reactors Knowpia

Soviet naval reactors have been used to power both military and civilian vessels, including:

Nuclear submarines:
Nuclear icebreakers:
Russian floating nuclear power stations:
- Akademik Lomonosov
Nuclear cruisers:
- Kirov-class battlecruisers
Merchant ship:
- Sevmorput
Command ship:
- SSV-33 Ural

They have included both pressurized water reactors and a relatively few liquid metal fast reactors.

OKBM Afrikantov has been the primary designer of naval reactors for the Soviet/Russian Navy for more than 60 years.
