This is a Virginia class Fast Attack submarine.
The Virginia class is the newest class of submarine in
the United States fleet. We are sometimes writing the book on,
on, the new tactics and new technologies that we employ.
We have the ability on the new Virginia class to have a
lock out trunk where we can store 11 SEALS.
We all have the ability to carry a DDS, which is called a Dry Deck
Shelter, where it's a little mini James Bond submarine
where we can carry around. Fast attack submarines do uh more of the,
cool stuff, hunting other submarines, doing counter intelligence.
It's a small ship with a small crew; however the punch that it brings
is rather large. This submarine has the ability to launch
tomahawk missiles, torpedoes. It's quite amazing just to
see a tomahawk come out of the middle of the ocean,
you have no idea where it came from. If you are looking for action
or places to pull into ports, Fast Attacks are the way to go.
