The '''Victor class''', Soviet designations '''Project 671 ''Yorsh''''', '''Project 671RT ''Syomga''''' and '''Project 671RTM/RTMK ''Shchuka''''', ([[List of NATO reporting names for submarines|NATO reporting name]]s '''Victor I''', '''Victor II''' and '''Victor III''', respectively), are series of [[Nuclear submarine|nuclear-powered]] [[attack submarine]]s built in the [[Soviet Union]] and operated by the [[Soviet Navy]]. Since the 1960s, 48 units were built in total, of which the last remaining are currently in service with the [[Russian Navy]]. The Victor-class submarines featured a [[Teardrop hull|teardrop]] shape, allowing them to travel at high speed. These vessels were primarily designed to protect Soviet surface fleets and to attack [[United States Navy|American]] [[ballistic missile submarine]]s. Project 671 began in 1959 with the design task assigned to SKB-143 (one of the  predecessors of the [[Malakhit Marine Engineering Bureau]]).
