The Arkhangelsk and Severstal nuclear powered submarines of type 941 (codename Akula) are to be disposed of in Russia, according to
RIA Novosti with the reference to the source in shipbuilding industry.
These submarines are already withdrawn from service in the Russian Navy. Their further operation is economically irrational.
