Despite her age (commissioned in 1980), the Project 667BDR Calmar nuclear-powered ballistic missile submarine Svyatoi Georgy Pobedonosets is still in service at Pacific Fleet.
In Oct 2012, crew of the sub successfully carried out test launch of ballistic missile R-29R from the Sea of Okhotsk.
In Sept 2011, fishing seiner Donets tangentially collided with the submarine stationed in the Avacha Bay. The sub was not seriously damaged.
