Abstract
The paper describes the GUSMP (North Sea Route Directorate) expert council session on the design of a powerful icebreaker of 18000–24000 HP held on June 15, 1935 in Leningrad, based on the archive documents. Analysis of the session materials sheds light on the state-of-the-art of icebreaker building in the mid-1930s. The standpoint of academician A.N. Krylov as well as GUSMP administration is particularly interesting.
