BS-64 is a Project 667BDRM Delfin-class ballistic missile submarine (NATO reporting name "Delta-IV") of the Russian Navy. She was originally designated K-64.

Due to lack of funds was this plan postponed, and the new recommissioning date is unknown. K-64 was renamed BS-64 in 2002, and her central section containing 16 silos for ballistic missiles was removed to create space for the installation of scientific-experimental eq
