The Project 949 (Granit) and Project 949A (Antey) Soviet Navy/Russian Navy cruise missile submarines are known in the West by their NATO reporting names, the Oscar-I and Oscar-II classes, respectively.

Oscars were the largest cruise missile submarines in service until the new Ohio class SSGN cruise missile submarine on October 15, 2007, and the third largest submarines as submarines in terms of displacement and length. Only the Typhoon class Soviet/Russian submarines and the American Ohio class submarines are larger.
