According to the agency's interlocutor, "in November 2020, during the state tests, a salvo was fired from the Kazan, which confirmed the possibility of such launches"

MOSCOW, April 20. /TASS/. Nuclear submarines (NPS) of the project 885M cipher "Ash-M" are capable of firing a salvo of cruise missiles "Kalibr-PL" and "Onyx". This was reported to TASS on Tuesday by a source in the military-industrial complex.

"The Kazan submarine of the project 885M during the state tests performed a salvo with two missiles from a vertical launcher and a torpedo tube," he said.

According to him, "in November 2020, during the state tests, a salvo was fired from the Kazan, which confirmed the possibility of such launches." A Kalibr-PL cruise missile was fired from a vertical launcher at a coastal target, and an Onyx missile was fired from a torpedo tube at a surface target. According to the source, both targets were successfully hit.

TASS has no official confirmation of this information. They did not comment on it in the NPO Mashinostroyeniya, where they developed and produce "Onyx".

Earlier it was reported that " Kazan "will be transferred to the Russian Navy by the Day of the Navy, which this year is celebrated on July 25.

The timing of the transfer of the submarine to the fleet was repeatedly postponed. According to previously existing plans, it was assumed that the submarine would join the fleet by the end of 2020. However, due to a number of reasons, it did not fulfill the planned program of state tests within the established time frame. It is known that the program of launches of cruise missiles "Caliber" and "Onyx" "Kazan" during the tests performed. No other launches are planned.

The Kazan submarine was launched on the Sevmash on March 31, 2017. On September 25, 2018, she entered factory sea trials. The main strike weapons of the submarines of the project 885/885M are Onyx and Kalibr cruise missiles, and in the future - hypersonic Zircons.
