Some mistakes from my observations on the SSBN's.
D-Boy, first of all the USS Ohio class:
The flood opening under the silo bulge should extend the length of the bulge, but is only engraved along the center section.
The Delta V class submarine is missing some
"doors/openings":
And the OKB model:
I have some doubts about how accurate the Delta IV submarine is also, is missing the extra hatches like Delta V and also some small details dosent seem right compared to pictures.
And here is a review of George Washington class from OKB some mistakes are noted in this review:

Now back at Delta IV, the Delta IV from OKB I think is as built version, but it still is missing the "extra" hatches:
The "extra" hatches in orange circles.
The strange device on the real model(Seems to be removed later in their career from all Delta IV, and thats why Im saying is maybe an as built version):
And the the "extra" hatches( Sorry at the moment I cant find a bigger picture):
Also Delta IV had/has 5 blade propellers not seven:
And finally the 1/700 USS Lafayette class sub from OKB its is a late mode version lacks the external sonar.
All in all the Delta IV suffers a lot of accuracy mistakes(Deck items are missing too and some are in different positions), while the Delta V mistake is easy to fix, while the 3 US Navy's SSBN mistake is hard to fix them.
The OKB 1/700 Benjamin Franklin(you shall only use the seven blade propeller) is okay for an as built version. While the Delta I, II and the Yankee class(Yankee II and the Yankee Notch) is very accuate
