There is another being built or scrapped under the partially covered drydock to the south.

Original comment may be out of date, but the focused submarine is definitely not Typhoon. Typhoon class submarines have their bridge in the back and are longer (170 m while the one on the picture appears to be around 120 m). I believe this is one of the new Yasen class submarines.
