^^ There is no mistake

Typhoon is just 5 meters longer than Ohio(175 vs 170M)

But it is much wider than Ohio( its beam is 23 meters vs 13 meters for Ohio)
 
kilo class are the smallest of submarines
 
Biggest US vs Soviet/Russian ICBM

The SS-18 is a beast.

I think the Bulava SLBM will establish Russia as maybe the leading SLBM country in the world.

Bulava has faced several problems, I will not wonder if Russia deploys R 29s on Borei subs for some time.

BTW as of now Trident II has no competition; at least when it comes range.
