Soviet naval reactors
Soviet naval reactors have been used to power both military and civilian vessels, including:
- Nuclear submarines:
- Attack submarines.
- Cruise missile submarines.
- Ballistic missile submarines.
- Nuclear icebreakers:
- Soviet icebreaker Lenin.
- Arktika-class icebreakers.
- Taymyr-class icebreakers.
- Russian floating nuclear power stations:
- Nuclear cruisers:
- Kirov-class battlecruisers.
- Merchant ship:
- 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.

'**'KPM-6 is developed by OKBM Afrikantov.
gollark: This is true. It seems like it's a pretty easy process on Google Pixels and stuff, but due to google bad you then lose the various payment things.
gollark: I think the best way to avoid badness is to buy a reasonably popular mid-range or old high-end phone and flash LineageOS or something, although that might take up time to do too.
gollark: For me, at least, it would be *worse* than a mediocre Android phone, since it would be more annoying to use ssh/mosh to access my server when I need to fix things, and generally worse to test things on portably.
gollark: I have learned by now that the bare minimum is not very good, having bought somewhat less RAM for my laptop than I should even though the price difference wasn't big and generated untold annoyance over time, but iPhones are quite far into diminishing returns territory.
gollark: I guess it depends on what you're comparing against pricewise.
