Decommissioned Foxtrot-class submarine
The Foxtrot-class submarine we have available for sale was decommissioned by the Soviet Navy in 1993, initially intended for museum display. It proudly served with the Soviet Baltic Fleet during the Cold War era before being repurposed as a training vessel for international crews. Since 1998, it has served as a museum ship, maintained internally much as it was upon departure from Russia, complete with original equipment and all compartments intact. The forward battery compartment has been ingeniously adapted to serve as a functional, educational space, accommodating seating for around 30 people, making it an ideal exhibit for a museum setting.
The Foxtrot-class submarines, designed in the early 1950s, played a significant role in naval history as part of the Soviet Union’s underwater fleet. Known for their endurance and capability to operate independently for long periods, these submarines were a testament to the technological advancements of their time. Equipped with torpedoes and capable of diving to depths that made them formidable adversaries, Foxtrot-class submarines were instrumental in demonstrating Soviet naval power during the Cold War. The model available for sale offers a unique opportunity to own a piece of naval history, providing insight into the life of submariners and the strategic military technology of the 20th century.
