 | | On 27 December 2000, the Russian SSBN Novomoskovsk (CNS believes it is the K-407, a Delfin class [NATO name 'Delta IV'] nuclear submarine) launched a ballistic missile from the Barents Sea. |
 | | According to one report, that missile was still under warranty.[9] The failure of the Novomoskovsk launches, judging from conflicting descriptions, could be attributed to the submarine, the missiles, or both. |
 | | The day after the Novomoskovsk's failed launches, another submarine of the same class, Kareliya, made a fresh attempt to launch an SLBM of the same type. |
