The Kilo class (NATO code) is a class of Soviet and later Russian diesel-electric submarines. This class is often considered the quietest of the existing diesel-electric submarines, hence its nickname of "black holes in the ocean". The first Kilo entered service in 1982.
(wikipedia)

The Kilo-class submarine was designed for anti-submarine and anti-ship warfare for the protection of naval bases, coastal installations and sea lanes, as well as for general reconnaissance and patrol missions. The Kilo is considered one of the quietest diesel submarines in the world. The submarine consists of six watertight compartments separated by transverse bulkheads in a pressurised double hull. This design and the good reserve buoyancy of the submarine allow for increased survivability if the submarine is breached, even with one compartment and two adjacent ballast tanks flooded.
