Sevmash shipyard will officially finish works on launching second Borei class nuclear-powered ballistic missile submarine (SSBN) Alexander Nevsky on Dec 13. In the same day JSC Zvezdochka Ship Repair Center will perform moving of SSBN Novomoskovsk out of the covered slipway which was initially scheduled on Dec 11. That was said to the Central Navy Portal by a source in defense industry.

It is expected that both events will be attended by the governmental delegation headed by Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin who will visit Arkhangelsk region in that time.

After that the premier will conduct a conference on development of Russian defense industry.

Withdrawal of SSBN Alexander Nevsky from the covered slipway was supposed to be held on Nov 30; however, the ship's moving was postponed due to technical difficulties caused by frosty weather. According to unofficial sources, the submarine left the slipway and was placed in floating dock Sukhona. However, this information has not been officially confirmed.
