I think I've managed to extract the intended sense from the fractured English of this article, but it's hard to be sure. Anybody? - Khendon

Well, I'd like to say yes, but no. ;) These boilers are not reheaters -- they're backup. The Soviet Navy Commander-in-Chief of the time, famous Adm. Gorshkov, wasn't very impressed with reliability of early submarine reactors he had experience with back in 60'es, so he insisted on having a couple of backup boilers on "Orlans" just in case. --Khathi 13:47, 4 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
