United Shipbuilding Corporation (USC) confirmed that the contracts for designing and construction of Project 955A Borei-A nuclear-powered strategic submarines were signed as a result of meeting held by president Putin and in accordance with his tasks, reports USC press service.

In total, defense ministry signed three contracts. The first one - with Rubin Central Design Bureau for designing of the modernized Project 955A Borei-A lead submarine; the second one – with JSC Sevmash shipyard for her construction; and the third one – with United Shipbuilding Corporation for batch construction of Project 955A Borei-A submarines.
