Putin Raises Flag on Russia’s Newest Nuclear Submarine in Arctic Ceremony | APT

ARKHANGELSK, RUSSIA – President Vladimir Putin personally attended a high-profile flag-raising ceremony for the Russian Navy’s latest nuclear-powered ballistic missile submarine, Knyaz Pozharsky, held in the country's far northern naval base.

The ceremony marks the submarine’s formal induction into the Northern Fleet, one of Russia’s most strategic military forces tasked with Arctic and Atlantic operations.

The Knyaz Pozharsky is part of the Borei-A class — capable of carrying Bulava intercontinental ballistic missiles and equipped with stealth enhancements and cutting-edge navigation systems.

Addressing sailors and defense officials, Putin hailed the submarine as a “symbol of Russia’s strategic strength beneath the waves,” reaffirming Moscow’s military commitment to securing its maritime frontiers amid heightened tensions with NATO.
