  • Being one of the stealthiest submarines in the world, the Ohio Class submarines represent America's ace-in-the-hole.
    The Ohio-Class submarines were the result of an early 1970s requirement for a larger missile submarine capable of carrying the next generation and beyond of submarine-launched ballistic missiles.
    Each displacing 18,750 tons submerged, the Ohio-class boats are the largest submarines ever built for the U.S. Navy.
    The Ohio-class submarines were constructed from sections of hull, with each four-deck section being 42 ft in diameter.
    Ohio class was designed to be 560 feet long with a beam of 42 feet enabling enough space for them to accommodate two rows of 12 Trident missiles each.
    Trident II, which is the latest iteration of these missiles, is capable of carrying up to 12 multiple independent re-entry vehicles (MIRVs), each with a yield of 100k.
    These missiles have a range up to 6,500 nautical miles.
    Four submarines of this class were refitted with Tomahawk TLAM (land attack) or Tactical Tomahawk (block IV) missiles.
    These submarines also became capable of conducting special operations missions with accommodation for Northrop Grumman advanced SEAL delivery systems (ASDS).
    The Ohio class is to be replaced by the Columbia class beginning in early 2030s.

      It's an old US Navy practice to name capital ships (like battleships) after states. This tradition has been passed to SSBNs. The states used for capital ship classes are done on a rotational basis. There was a Tennessee class battleship for example.

    “As a Trident II reenters the atmosphere at speeds of up to Mach 24, it splits into up to eight independent reentry vehicles, each with a 100- or 475-kiloton nuclear warhead. In short, a full salvo from an Ohio-class submarine-which can be launched in less than one minute-could unleash up to 192 nuclear warheads to wipe twenty-four cities off the map. This is a nightmarish weapon of the apocalypse.” - Sébastien Roblin said in a story with The National Interest magazine.
    I would just like to add that the bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki had an explosive power yield of 14 and 21 kilotons of TNT, respectively.
    Insane device of world-ending proportions... Let’s hope with all we got that it’s just for deterrence, and America doesn’t ever have to use them in self-defense.

      Wrong kid, what you people do not get is that before nuclear weapons, the world used to "celebrate" a world war every 20 years or so... after nuclear weapons, that party was suspended. Nuclear weapons stopped the impetus of tyrants into world domination, for the price of their agressions would be too great.... the fear of being incinerated in a flash of light keeps evil at bay. Until humanity finally evolves into being able to live together in peace there will be a need for massive weapons like these....

      The conflict in Ukraine showcases the benefits of quality vs. quantity. The Ukrainians are holding their country, even being vastly outnumbered by russian arms and men. And that is with the vast majority of the weapons we have given the UAF being mothballed or on the chopping block, so our new weapons would absolutely destroy the russian military; especially when we have the upper hand in quantity and quality.
      It should be noted, though, the russians definitely do have a very capable navy, their submarines in particular. The rest of their navy..... not so much, it seems.

      You don't need more than a dozen or so these giant mankind-ending subs (the US has 14 Ohio class & the Brits have 4 Vanguard, both carrying Trident II: the Vanguard carry up to 16 Trident II while the Ohio carries up to 24 Trident II).
      Each Trident II, as noted, carried up to 12 700 - 800lb MIRVs that are released from the "mother" ICBM/SLBM missile once it reaches terminal velocities of up to Mach 26 (or ~8.5 times as fast as the F-22 flying non-stop with after burner from here to China or Russia... which is of course NOT possible, since jet could only do that for a few minutes before they run out of fuel or explode from materials expanding, due to excessive heat).
      Each MIRV (again mostly between 700 - 800lb) has a blast yield of up to 20 times the two crude nuclear bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945.
      In other words, you don't need more than ONE ICBM (or SLBM) and its up to 14 MIRVs in it ---- each MIRV programmed to land in a slightly different part of the city --- to bring immediate deaths to roughly 95% of a major city like Moscow, Beijing, LA, Washington DC, Paris, London, etc.; the rest of the population WILL get really sick and die a few days to a few months later, from the extreme RADIATION that comes out of those MIRVs.
      REPEAT:
      Each MIRV --- most ICBMs or SLBMs carry 4 to 14 MIRVs --- may have a blast yield of close to 500 KILOTONS. (The American "W88" mirv warhead, of ~800lb, has a blast yield of 475 KILOTONS. As a comparison, the 10,000 oound FAT MAN thermonuclear bomb dropped on Nagasaki had a blast yield of only 21 KILOTONS.)
      That, again, means you don't really need more than ONE single ICBM (or submarine launched SLBMs) to wipe out almost all of a modern city's many millions, from both immediate impact and from radiation fall-out a bit later.
      The US (from general nuclear weapon stockpile of around 4,500 or so) has at least A FEW HUNDRED ICBMs/SLBMs, and Russia (with general stockpile of nukes in the 6,000 range) has even more of such ICBMs.... China's over-all nuclear stockpile is between 300 - 500, so the Chinese, the Brits, and the French in general are in the middle group, in terms of how many NUKES (including dumb gravity bombs and inter-continental ballistic missiles) they have....
      But we ALL WILL DIE from those few "mere hundreds" of Brit, French, and Chinese nukes... just like we all will die (several times over)... from the US and the Russians much larger collections....
      Dying TWICE over by the Chinese isn't any worse than dying ONCE over by the Americans, in total nuclear exchange...

    It is almost as long as Russia's largest submarine in the world, which is 185 meters long, since Ruska has a swimming pool, that's an extra 15 meters, so those 15 meters have no function when you look at it, but then how is Ruska 2 times bigger volume where only 15 longer, the Russian Submarine is constructed as two submarines side by side and thus connected. So the Ruska is more than twice as wide as there is still 2 meters of space between the two connected cylinders, I mean submarines. And that's good, if one side is hit and there is no escape, the crew can move to one of those two, and separate, so they can then save themselves with one, when you look at the structure, everything in it is like that rigged so that there is nothing in the middle physically connected to those two cylinders or submarines rather, even the Missile Silos are separated left in the left, right Silos in the right submarine. If the submarine was at least 20 cm longer, they could convert it to be an aircraft carrier, because their planes, the MiG 29 and Su 27, were primarily designed to take off from aircraft carriers, because the first point when designing those planes was that they could take off from aircraft carriers without catapults, so they need 200 to 250 meters of runway to take off even when the carrier has a ramp, then even less. That's why they can make the only Cobra maneuver of all the planes and stand still. And at the Aeromeeting this is always shown by the short take-off, the Cobra maneuver itself and the vertical connection in the air with the vertical take-off.
