service history
27 October 1996 year in the nose machine and boiler room there was a steam pipe rupture, under pressure in 35 atmospheres and the temperature of dry steam +300 °C. Two sailors were killed and three workers commissioning team. When investigating the causes have been identified, that the split pipe has been installed in 1989 year, and the thickness and grade of steel did not match project. In March 1998 , the nuclear cruiser transferred to the Navy under the name "Peter the Great".
Despite, that the term of the warranty has expired Baltic plant, company, the world's first, continues to carry out maintenance cruiser. This decision of the Navy command decided in connection with the, that the personnel of the ship did not have enough skills in maintenance and operation of equipment cruiser.
