===Armament=== To carry out the Julietts' mission of destroying American [[carrier battle group]]s and bases, they were fitted with two pairs of missile launchers, one each fore and aft of the [[Sail (submarine)|sail]]. The launchers were used by the surface-launched [[SS-N-3 Shaddock]] family of long-range, [[turbojet]]-powered, cruise missiles. The P-5D version was codenamed SS-N-3c by [[NATO]] and was a dedicated land-attack missile that could be equipped with either a [[Explosive#High|high-explosive]] or nuclear [[warhead]]; it was withdrawn from service in 1965–1966. The P-6 (SS-N-3a) variant was a radar-guided [[anti-ship missile]] that could also be fitted with high-explosive and nuclear [[warhead]]s.<ref>Vilches Alarcón, pp. 12, 18, 22; Polmar & Noot, p. 289</ref> The more traditional armament of the Julietts consisted of six {{convert|533|mm|0|sp=us|adj=on}} [[torpedo tube]]s mounted in the [[bow (ship)|bow]] and four {{convert|406|mm|0|sp=us|adj=on}} torpedo tubes in the stern. Due to space limitations, no reloads were provided for the bow tubes, but each stern tube had two reloads for a total of twelve.<ref name=p1/>
