    This was the text for it,
    "рассматривалась возможность перевооружения комплексом крылатых ракет, разрабатываемых для проекта 885 «Ясень», было принято решение о достройке К-139 в качестве подлодки специального назначения-носителя В начале 2012 года главком ВМФ Владимир Высоцкий заявил, что «Белгород» достраивается по специальному проекту.

    Due to the development of newest Yasen class which was designed as multipurposes submarine (SSN/SSGN), the uncompleted K-139 Belgorod [Oscar-II class SSGN] will be converted as a special purpose research and rescue submarine, designated as project 09852, The submarine is designed to carry smaller submarines."

        Sweet, thanks. Once in a while the Russian Sub fan page (run by the Russians) puts up "news" and other things I've never heard of. That midget sub reminds me a bit of the NR-1.
