"Whiskey Class" Submarine - FAQ

1.) How old is this vessel and how many years service would it still give as a military vessel?

It was build in 1950's. The hull is at least 19 mm thick all around. The sub was docked three years ago at which time they made ultrasound scanning. It was found to be in good condition and insurable.

2.) Is it possible for this vessel to have a refit that would bring it up to current day standards as an operational naval vessel and what would a refit like this cost?

When the Russians sold the boat they took care that it wouldn't be used as a "weapon" against them. They removed some parts. This parts we are assured are available.

We have been assured that the governments would work with us to refit this vessel to a pleasure craft.
