• There is an inconsistancy on this page and Typhoon class submarine, this one calls the submarines with the NATO designation "typhoon" "bars" whereas the Typhoon class submarine article says that the NATO designation "akula" belongs to the "bars" class of soviet submarine. Does anyone know which is which? HoratioVitero 18:04, 26 August 2005 (UTC) sorry about the name issue
  • It's like this:

NATO reporting name	Project	Russian name	other names
Typhoon	941	Akula
Akula	971	Shchuka-B	Bars (lead ship)

the information in the *appearances in film* section is not correct: in the movie as well as in the novel 'The hunt for red october' no Akula class attack submarine appears. however it s an fast attack submarine, nato designation Alfa, soviet project number 705 'Lira' --Solarsystemsurfer 17:43, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
