The submarines of the project 877 "Paltus" ["Halibut"] (the NATO reporting name "Kilo") are among the best diesel-electric submarines in the world. Very low levels of noise and physical fields made them very hard to detect. This submarine was developed in the Soviet Union in the 1970s for Warsaw Pact countries' fleets. For this reason it was unofficially named "Varshavyanka". In total produced 43 submarines of this type.
