Rzhitsky commanded the Krasnodar submarine in the Russian Navy, which was equipped with Kalibr cruise missiles. Reports of arson attacks against enlistment centers ramped up after the fall of 2022, when Russian President Vladimir Putin announced a partial mobilization order. The mobilization department in Krasnodar where Rzhitsky worked would be tasked with conscripting Russian men to fight in Ukraine. Newsweek has contacted the press service of the Krasnodar administration via email for comment. "The investigation was assigned to the first department for very important cases at the regional office of the Russian Investigative Committee," a statement from the committee said. Rzhitsky was found shot dead in the southern Russian city of Krasnodar, Russian media reported on Monday. The Maritime Museum of San Diego is now arranging for the vessel’s disposition and bring the tenure of the Foxtrot at our Museum to a close by the end of 2021.Stanislav Rzhitsky, commander of the Krasnodar submarine, pictured in the Western Military District of Russia, October 2017. We have determined not to shift scarce resources away from the historic vessels in the Maritime Museum of San Diego fleet that we intend to keep in perpetuity, in order to extend the life of the Foxtrot. The B-39 skin visable to you is not part of the vessel’s pressure hull, which remains in good stable condition, so that materially, Foxtrot is no less seaworthy today, than 15 years ago. We are hoping that in the time she remains with us, public health conditions will permit Museum visitors one last chance to tour the Foxtrot sub and step into her own fascinating exotic true story as depicted in the To the Brink of War exhibit and that of the world she represented. A recent severe storm that passed through San Diego, tore away portions of the metal fabric and exposes additional bare metal to rust. You may notice accelerating, degradation of the outer skin of the Russian Foxtrot Class attack submarine B-39. This theatrical professionally produced live action exhibit about a close call with nuclear war the Museum installed on the sub is intended to soon be available live as a web-based experience at. Foxtrot’s popularity among visitors influenced the Museum’s decision to extend the To the Brink of War exhibition, an immersive video, light and sound production shown daily inside the Foxtrot. Maritime Museum of San Diego originally installed the Foxtrot as an interactive two-year temporary exhibition in 2005. Russian Foxtrot Class attack submarine B-39 closed. They played a part in many of the Cold War’s most tense moments including the Cuban Missile Crisis. The Soviet and then Russian Federation’s navies deployed these submarines from the mid 1950s through the early 1990s. B-39 carried a crew of 78 and could dive to a depth of 985 feet before threatening the integrity of her nickel steel pressure hull. Low-tech but lethal, she carried 24 torpedoes while she was on patrol-some capable of delivering low-yield nuclear warheads. Soviet Project 641 submarines, classified as “Foxtrot” by NATO, are essentially larger and more powerful versions of German World War II era U-boats. Now, less than 20 years after the collapse of the Berlin Wall signaled the end of the Cold War, she is berthed on San Diego Bay amidst her former adversaries. B-39, assigned to the Soviet Pacific fleet, undoubtedly stalked many of the U.S. and NATO warships throughout the world’s oceans. 300 feet in length and displacing more than 2000 tons, B-39 is among the largest conventionally powered submarines ever built. One of a fleet of diesel electric submarines the Soviet Navy called “Project 641,” B-39 was commissioned in the early 1970s and served on active duty for more than 20 years.
