@Mr91495osh3 years agoI was stationed onboard the USS HUNLEY AS31 1968 to 1971, a tender for Nuclear Submarines, fast attacks and boomers. SUBRON18. They were incredibly high tech back then, I can’t even imagine how advanced they are now. ...26

@MikeHudson-px2gclast yearI got a tour of the EB shipyard in Groton , CT when working for NNS on the Virginia Class program. Was taken inside a covered dock where they had the USS Nautilus, the 1st nuclear powered US sub, in for repairs. From the 1st to the most current at that time. ...

@DJones-nl5ld10 months agoWorked at NNS for 38 years. Did these Sub rollouts and Dry Docking and undocking of all the CVN's. Glad to be retired but it was an honor to build these ships for our country and it's Navy. I've seen some incredible sights working on and around these ships. ...1

@richarddemp24132 years agoMany years ago it was my honor, after security clearance, to be invited to the launching of a Santa Fee class Nuclear submarine in Groton Conn.. We were allowed to walk through the interior construction facility, were other subs were in various phases of construction. The technology on display we beyond mind-bending. I had never seen anything outside of NASA at this level of technology. Truly amazing. btw: The sub was launched in the dead of winter. It gracefully slide into the bay where several tugboats were awaiting. ...35

@oceanic84244 years ago[09/10/20] Look at the massive size of that Top Secret pump jet drive. I suppose they were pioneered with the Seawolf class? How thick is the steel on the outer hull? ⅜"? ½"? What about the pressure hull" 1"? Must be at least HY-100 steel. ...7
@
@jimlangley8406 years agoI lived in N.N. from 60 to 67, when there were still houses on the same street as the shipyard. We went swimming where they build carriers now. You could walk up to the fence & see the giant propellors for the Enterprise then the JFK. Amazing that they kept the prop hidden while launching the sub, maybe a high tech design for silence. ...72

@Mark-OutWest6 years agoWhen did they start naming fast attacks after states? Amazing to see something this big and heavy come out on rollers and back out into a dry dock. When I was in I had the privilege to walk in the dry dock in Pearl while a fast attack was up on blocks and just run my hand along the hull. Very cool. ...12
@
@scottdahl39753 years agoThe floating dry dock was brought in during my time there ‘86-89. I was able to see the last launch off a declevity. Lots of interesting work at NNS. Noticed the propulsion was covered which they did during my time but I wonder what else along the hull is covered up? ...11

@garyreid61654 years agoI remember when I was a kid, I was in the NJROTC (Navy Junior Reserve Officer’s Training Corps). Our group visited a submarine base in King’s Bay, near Valdosta, Georgia. We stepped aboard a Trident class missile attack submarine. It was called the Benjamin Franklin. The bridge was like a spaceship. It was also being resupplied by the submarine tender on the starboard side. Among those supplies were torpedoes. A seaman scared us by jumping onto one. Thank God it was unarmed. A seaman told me “Don’t ever get on any of these boats.” I asked him why. He told me, “Because you won’t see the sun and you won’t see any women.” That was back in the early 80’s. I couldn’t join the military because I had scoliosis and the government didn’t want to take any chances. If I didn’t have scoliosis, I would serve until I made captain. I tried to join the U.S. Air Force. Same result. To those who have served or are still serving, thank you for all your dedication and courage. ...52

@Blaqk_82989 months agoI was wanting to see how the submarine was actually put inside of the water and they skipped that part. 1
@
@chrisackerley18426 years agoNotice the prop is covered. The shape of the thing is classified. Look at the Google Maps satellite photo of the sub pens at Point Loma. On each of the docked subs, the area of the prop is distorted in the photo. I'm guessing that the shape of the prop is an important part of why modern subs are so fast, and so quiet. Good job, guys! ...6

@mitchellstump67304 years agoI'm curious. Maybe some of you Navy guys can answer. Is the prop covered for safety or is it to hide what it looks like? 1

Concealing some sort of tech? Something not finished on the hull? Exposed equipment that still needed to be protected from the elements? They just seemed out of place on a submarine hull. ...
