The original version of the vessels were designated '''Project 877''' '''''Paltus''''' ([[Halibut]]) in Russia. There is also a more advanced version, designated as Improved ''Kilo''-class submarine in the [[Western Hemisphere|west]], and '''Project 636 ''Varshavyanka''''' in Russia. == Role == The boats are mainly intended for [[Anti-surface warfare|anti-shipping]] and [[anti-submarine warfare|anti-submarine]] operations in relatively shallow waters. Original Project 877 boats are equipped with Rubikon MGK-400 sonar system (with [[NATO reporting name]] Shark Gill), which includes a mine detection and avoidance sonar MG-519 Arfa (with [[NATO reporting name]] Mouse Roar). Newer Project 636 boats are equipped with improved MGK-400EM, with MG-519 Afra also upgraded to MG-519EM. The improved sonar systems have reduced the number of operators needed by sharing the same console via automation. [[Anechoic tile]]s are fitted on casings and fins to absorb the sound waves of active sonar, which results in a reduction and distortion of the return signal.<ref>Anechoic tiles are fitted on casings and fins to absorb the sonar sound waves of active sonar, which results in a reduction and distortion of the return signal.</ref> These tiles also help attenuate sounds that are emitted from the submarine, thus reducing the range at which the sub may be detected by [[passive sonar]].<ref>[http://www.russiafile.com/kilo.htm Kilo-class Submarines]</ref> == Future == The Kilo class was to have been succeeded by the {{sclass2-|Lada|submarine|4}}. In November 2011, the Russian Navy announced that the Lada class will not enter service because trials with the lead boat of the new class, ''Sankt Peterburg'' (B-585) had shown major deficiencies.
