Admiralty Shipyards, located in the western port of St. Petersburg, announced the death of Alexander Buzakov, who had been its general manager since August 2012.

According to the Tass agency, the shipyard is building diesel-powered Kilo submarines, which are capable of launching Kalibr cruise missiles. In April Moscow said it used a diesel-powered submarine in the Black Sea to hit Ukrainian military targets with Kalibr missiles.

The shipyard said Buzakov graduated in 1980 and had more than 40 years of experience, suggesting he was between 60-70 years old.
