The Russian Navy's Project 1650 Амур (named for the Amur river) submarines are export variants of the Project 677 Lada class, a highly improved version of the Kilo class. with much better quieting, new combat systems, and air-independent propulsion.

Depending on the model chosen, they are priced about US$100,000,000 less than a French Scorpène or German Type 212 AIP submarine of equivalent advertised capability. [1] Template:Amur class submarine
