Sovetskiy Soyuz (Russian: Советский Союз, IPA: [sɐˈvʲetskʲɪj sɐˈjus] ; literally: Soviet Union) is the fourth Russian Arktika-class nuclear-powered icebreaker operated by FSUE Atomflot. The ship, which is named after the Soviet Union, was built by Baltic Shipyard in Leningrad and entered service in 1990.[4] She was decommissioned in 2014.[2]

In January 2016, it was reported that the icebreaker will be converted into a command ship.[5][6] However, this was later retracted and the nuclear-powered icebreaker is now slated for scrapping.[2]
