Editing Akula-class submarine (section)

===Project 971 and 971I (Improved ''Akula I'')===
The six ''Akula''s of this class are all thought to be in service. They are quieter than the original ''Akula''s. Sources also disagree as to whether construction of this class has been suspended, or if there are a further two units planned.

Improved ''Akula I'' Hulls: K-328 ''Leopard'', K-461 ''Volk'', K-154 ''Tigr'', K-419 ''Kuzbass'', K-295 ''Samara'' and K-152 ''Nerpa''. These submarines are much quieter than early ''Akula''-class submarines and all have the SOKS hydrodynamic sensors except ''Leopard''.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/ship/deep.htm |title=Run Silent, Run Deep |website=FAS.org |access-date=2012-10-04 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060205165346/https://fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/ship/deep.htm |archive-date=2006-02-05 |url-status=live}}</ref>{{Failed verification|date=July 2023}}
