She was one of the first vessels to be taken into Russian military service after the collapse of the Soviet Union, served for 5 years in the Northern Fleet before tragically sinking during an exercise into the depths of Barents sea on August 2000 with the loss of all hands.

While 23 of the 118 personnel survived the explosions, delayed rescue operations led to rest of the crew suffocating.
