Bravo class submarine
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Project 690 Kefal (Mullet) class (known in the West by its NATO reporting name Bravo class) was a design of military submarines that were built in the Soviet Union. The boats were designed for use in ASW exercises, but could also be employed in a combat role. Four vessels were built, which were commissioned into the Soviet navy between 1967 and 1970. All boats have been stricken in the 1990s.
