Akula Submarine

Akula Subs are designed with naval supremacy in mind, captained by men who led mostly illiterate crews. Its primary armament - the RU-7 Torpedoes - were specifically chosen for ease of use. It also features the more powerful RU-20 Torpedoes to take on stronger vessels. Given the aggressive nature of Soviet naval operations, they remain submerged for years at a time, with the crew uncomfortably packed inside. Their captains often go to extreme ends to discipline their crew, putting the sub to devastating effect in direct action. Much of the Akula Sub's secret eluded the Allies just as it escaped them while sinking their vessels in the shadows until a crew member was unwittingly ejected during a torpedo launch sequence.
