The K-77 was the seventh Project 651 (NATO designation Juliett) submarine built by the Soviet Union. Its keel was laid in the Krasnoye Sormovo shipyard in Gorky, U.S.S.R., on January 31st, 1963 with a length of 281.75 feet and a beam of 31.2 feet. The boat was launched on March 11th, 1965.
In its time, the Juliett-class submarines were considered formidable adversaries by United States Navy and NATO sailors. Despite its size (a length of 281.75 feet and a displacement of 3,174 tons), the K-77 was initially found hard to track due to its tiled rubber sheath and silent running diesel-electric motors. These underwater weapons platforms were routinely armed with four P-5, P-6, or P-500 nuclear cruise missiles capable of destroying cities, harbors or aircraft carriers at a range of more than 500 kilometers (300 miles). Additionally, the submarine carried up to 22 torpedoes for its 10 torpedo tubes (6 bow, 4 stern).
The Project 651 submarines were initially planned by the Soviet Navy in the late 1950's as a nuclear missile platform for strikes against the United States, targeting East Coast cities in particular. Later, when armed with more accurate cruise missiles, the P-6 [SS-N-3a SHADDOCK], and the subsequent P-500 4K-80 Basalt [SS-N-12 SANDBOX] their mission evolved to a cruise missile platform for anti-carrier operations. In essence, the mission of Juliett-class submarines became to shadow and in the event of hostilities, destroy United States aircraft carriers at sea and, when possible, in port.
