		Although their capabilities are less than those of the new LSD-41 class, the ships of the Austin class, built between 1965-1971, were considered sufficiently modern to have their service lives extended, and the Navy had planned to inaugurate a SLEP program for all 11 of them commencing in early 1988.
		The two Pigeon class ships are the first in the world to be built specifically for the submarine rescue mission and, except for one Military Sealift Command ship, are the first catamaran-hull ships to be built for the Navy since Robert Fulton's Demologos in 1812.
		The most modern of these classes of tankers are the five ships of the Champion class, the last two of which were delivered in 1986, and the nine-ship Sealift class tankers which were built specifically for the Military Sealift Command (MSC).

		There would be another nuke sub for the SSBN which would differ from the SSN as follows: carries ballistic missiles, weaker attack, same defense, slightly slower (still faster than a conventional sub).
		A better example would be the OH Perry class (frigate) or A Burke class (destroyer) that have impressive anti-submarine systems.
		The point of a SSBN is to hide where your nukes are, so the other guy can't take 'em out with a pre-emptive strike.
