On 6 September 2006, a fire broke out on board killing two sailors.[3]

On 18 November 2012, while reportedly engaged in routine "combat training" in the Barents Sea the submarine responded to a distress call and rescued two fisherman when their boat began sinking off the coast of the Kola Peninsula, reported to be somewhere between Liinakhamari and Teriberka. A spokesperson for the Russian Navy's Northern Fleet said the rescue was accomplished despite adverse weather conditions.[4][5]

In 2019 it was reported that the Daniil Moskovsky would be retired by the end of 2021.[6] However, the boat's status remained unclear as of January 2022. It was shown at dockside during a Combat Approved documentary in January 2022.[7] The boat was reportedly decommissioned on 28 October 2022 and subsequently towed for scrapping.[8]
