The in-game Typhoon bears a much closer resemblance to the real world Shchuka (Russian: Pike) nuclear-powered attack submarines of the Soviet Navy, including its characteristic teardrop shaped rear sonar housing. They were some of the largest submarines ever built, with over 500 feet in length. The Typhoon-class attack sub was actually a nuclear submarine in service in the real USSR, however, the real-life Typhoon was a missile submarine, not an attack submarine. Note: If Yuri's Revenge is not installed, this unit will use quotes from the Dreadnought.

Short sight range allow Destroyer to use Osprey very early due to longer range detection.

Torpedoes tends to fail if near to shores.

When surfaced due to receiving damage, submarine will be vulnerable to further land and air attacks.

Unlike Boomer, can be sunk by Giant Squid.Cannot handle Boomer in a one-by-one situation.Can be revealed by Psychic Sensors, radiation, superweapons hits or normal weaponry if force attacking on the water.Can ambush ships without warning, especially those without detection and anti-submarine capabilities.Unimaginable potential in the right time, becoming a dreadful ambush weapon.

Most naval units cannot detect them, even SEALs and Tanya.

Submerged, can attack without surfacing.

It was replaced by the Akula submarine in the War of the Three Powers, which, like the original submarine, must surface to fire. Typhoons also have no defense against aircraft and, unlike the Destroyer, cannot attack ground units. Typhoon attack submarines can be intentionally surfaced by friendly fire as well. While the submarines themselves are invisible, the torpedoes are not, which allows an observant player to more or less guess the location of the submarines even if the player can't see the submarines. Typhoons are, in turn, also capable of detecting and firing on other submerged units. Only boomers, destroyers, dolphins and giant squids can detect them while they are submerged.

They are invisible while submerged and will only surface if they are under attack or a naval unit has come too close to them. The Typhoon is the first naval combat unit available to Soviet commanders, and requires only a naval yard to construct them. This new force of submarines was even more potent than the first, capable of remaining permanently submerged, unless heavily damaged or detected by Allied forces. With this in mind, he commissioned a new force of submarines, under the direction of General Vladimir. Although the Soviet Union was forced to disarm after his defeat, Romanov realized that a fleet of new submarines would be vital for a new secret attack force to destroy Allied forces in the United States. When Stalin led the Union in Second World War, he utilized a fleet of submarines in an attempt to dominate the seas.
