Museum of the Russian Submarine Fleet
Moscow, st. Freedoms, Vlad. 50-56, North Tushino Park
About the company:
The Russian Submarine Fleet Museum was opened in July 2006. While in the museum, in the park "Northern Tushino", only one exhibit - a large diesel submarine - B 396. The boat was built in Nizhny Novgorod at the Krasnoye Sormovo plant, according to the project of the MT Rubin Central Design Bureau (St. Petersburg).
The submarine was named Novosibirsk Komsomolets and served in the Arctic and Atlantic Oceans from 1980 to 2000. In 2003, the boat was converted into a museum in Severodvinsk.
The opening of the museum is timed to the round date - the 100th anniversary of the submarine fleet. The conversion affected not only the interior of the boat, which was expanded, - for the convenience of visitors in the sides were made doors.
Visitors can view all 7 compartments of the boat. The interior is preserved as much as possible - navigation devices, radars, sensors, submarine cabins. In some compartments there are figures of submariners in military uniforms.
A small exhibition hall will allow you to get acquainted with the personal belongings of the crew. In the near future, the museum should be replenished with new exhibits: an amphibious aircraft, a modern warship, a sailing ship. Also, a museum building, a lighthouse, a square with stands and flagpoles will be built – all this is presented on a skillfully made layout.
