[HKB] Pr.309, Kosatka SSN -OBSOLETE-

The Kosatka Class nuclear-powered attack submarine (SSN) is what HKB has been known for. The class was built and designed for long patrols across the European Ridge and Cold Caverns areas, hence its extended and rather spacious crew quarters for a military vessel. Since the end of the "Russian Age" more than 20 years ago, the Kosatka followed a number of refit to keep the design "up-to-date" by featuring improved quieting measures in the style of Old-Earth submarines, modular weapons emplacements and a newly installed LiiRa built 473-B "Korall" battery. It is also important to note that almost all compartiments are on raft mounted frames to help reduce noise transference to the hull. The latest refits of 2222 removed the infamous Ultra-Quiet mode, giving the class a much needed increase in performance. During sea-trials, the Akalon achieved a record breaking 32 knots, outperforming the prior recorded speeds of 29 knots.

Pr.309 EC-228 "Kosatka" (Ru : Косатка / En : Orca)
Laid down in 2195 and commissioned in 2198 at Novokopilovka Shipyards, 12 years after the end of the Archaeological Renaissance, the Kosatka was the first of a six ship batch to provide the Habitat (and now city) with reliable long range patrol vessels. Their success segmented the relations and trust with the European Coalition toward HKB.
