This role fell to the crew and the delivery team of the Kazan submarine - they coped with the task, in May 2021, the submarine was accepted into the Navy and is now serving in the Northern Fleet.
The Novosibirsk delivery team has an even more difficult task - to conduct factory and state tests in July-December in order to transfer a combat-ready ship to the Navy by the end of this year. And Krasnoyarsk should follow it in 2022.
