Project 955A/Borey A, 4th to 8th Borey

So, Arihant is the world's first SSBN armed with supersonic cruise missile?
For Borey TLT not completely clear others say 6/8 x 533 mm with 12/24 torpedoes, Delta IV 4 x 533 yes with 16 torpedoes.
Don' t forget the 3 Delta III a little less big as Delta IV mainly less long and armed with 16 SS-N-18, TLT : 4 x 533, 2 x 400 mm with 20 torpedoes.
In more all Russian submarines carry short range SAM for SSBN in general 2 retractable launchers with between 4/18 missiles.
Seems good 4 x 533 mm and 4 x 650 mm
Wonderful blog on Russian submarines
