Rosatom Completes Leningrad Icebreaker Reactor
Rosatom has announced the completion of the second RITM-200 reactor for the nuclear icebreaker "Leningrad," marking a significant step in the development of its nuclear fleet. This reactor is designed to power the icebreaker to traverse thick ice layers and ensure continued navigation through the Arctic Sea route, a vital corridor for Russia. The two new reactors have been named "Iskra" and "Grom" in honor of the breaking of the Siege of Leningrad during World War II, part of Rosatom's tradition of assigning symbolic names to its reactors. The RITM-200 reactor is expected to remain in service for over 40 years. This achievement is part of Russia’s efforts to enhance its naval capabilities and geopolitical influence through advanced nuclear technology.
