The "Oscar II" class nuclear submarine is a deep-strike vessel capable of launching internally-housed short to medium range ballistic missiles. It includes the latest in Soviet submarine technology, giving it great survivability in the seas despite it's size. It's advanced sonar-detection system, powerful twin nuclear-powered engines, and highly maneuverable outriggers and tailfins, allow Oscar II submarine commanders to take evasive maneuvers when set on high-alert. It however, is still not as maneuverable as the "Alpha" class diesel-electric submarine, because of its large mass.
