In fact, that is going to be a bit of a problem for dive tests, Will have to keep the boat within a foot or two of the surface. Depending on the chlorine content and other chemicals that may be in a pool, the radio signal is reflected at about 3 feet. Umi, If I had a swimming pool to test run in I'd do just that, but the pond we run in is pretty murky, so even if the swim didn't result in some horrible affliction, you probably couldn't see the boat anyway. It’s powered by two nuclear reactors and two 50,000 horsepower steam turbines with a speed of 27 knots underwater and 22 knots on the surface. Since Dumas recommends using the AKULA in a swimming pool, the maximum depth at which it can be controlled is about 3 feet. The Typhoon-class has 19 different compartments to house 160 sailors. It’s almost twice as wide as the Ohio-class.
The Typhoon-class is 566 feet long, 76 feet wide, and nearly 38 feet tall. Today, they make up about half of Russia's dwindling fleet of nuclear-powered attack submarines. Ohio-class submarines only displace about 19,000 tons. The steel-hulled submarines of the Project 971 Schuka-B, designated by the West as Akula class were easier and cheaper to built than the Sierras, and are essentially successors to the prolific Victor class. When underwater, the Typhoon-class displaces 48,000 tons.

The Typhoon subs were developed during the Cold War to run silent and deep under thick ice in the Arctic and carry a full load of conventional ballistic and nuclear missiles. There are only one of these boats left and it is mainly now just a test platform for new missiles. That’s right, I’m talking about the gargantuan Typhoon-class – the largest submarine ever made. Typhoon: The Largest Submarine Ever – This Russian sub is so big it was originally designed to have a swimming pool and a sauna.
