US Navy Nuclear Submarine Bursts Through Polar Ice

  • Have you ever seen a nuclear submarine burst through the polar ice? The US Navy performs exercises in the Arctic region called ICEX, where nuclear-powered submarines break through the ice to test the skills of the submarine’s crews and evaluate the performance of submarines in the most challenging conditions.
    An average nuclear submarine can smash about 3 feet of ice, and some submarines can even go through around 9 feet of ice.
    However, this is a risky exercise and it can severely damage a $1.59 billion submarine if the crew tries to surface through ice in the wrong location. It is very dangerous for sailors too because the chances of rescuing the crew of a sunken submarine alive in remote areas of the Arctic are quite low.
    Fortunately, sensors enable the crew to find the right spots to surface and help research the Arctic in a safe way.

      It happens. The ice underneath is usually jagged like stalactites. If a sub hits one of those wrong (get turned sideways), they might not be able to use the ballast tanks and be stuck. They have to find a flat place to surface. They have upward facing sonar for that.

Because there was so much pressure the sub rocked up and down!
