	United States Arsenal
		Even though U.S. ballistic missile submarines will be capable of maintaining day-to-day deterrence with instant retargeting, robust communications, and excellent accuracy, the Minuteman III is being retained largely because of entrenched interests in maintaining the Cold War construct of the U.S. nuclear triad.
		The Ohios that operate in the Pacific are based at Bangor, Washington, while those in the Atlantic are based at King's Bay, Georgia.
		The Ohio class submarines have maintained a 2/3 at-sea rate by having two crews (designated Blue and Gold), which alternate on 70 day patrols, interrupted only by a 25 day refit period, with an overhaul every 9 years.

	Seawolf class submarine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The second nuclear-powered submarine, USS Seawolf (SSN-575), which served from the early 1950s through 1987, was unique, and so can be considered the lead boat of the "Seawolf (SSN-575) class".
		The Seawolf-class attack submarine (SSN) was the intended successor to the Los Angeles class, ordered at the end of the Cold War in 1989.
		They were intended to combat the then-threat of large numbers of advanced Soviet ballistic-missile submarines in deep ocean, such as the Typhoon class, and to reply the new Soviet Lira or Alfa class attack submarines.

	U.S. Submarine Classes
		Originally commissioned as ballistic missile submarines, the two remaining members of this class of submarine have been converted to special operations attack submarines, with a capacity for carrying and delivering special operations forces added.
		Rapidly being phased out in favor of the LOS ANGELES and SEAWOLF Classes of attack submarines, this venerable and flexible workhorse of the submarine attack fleet brought the Cold War home to the enemies of freedom for over 25 years and continues to operate in the forward areas of the world to this day.
		Originally intended as a class of 29 submarines to be built during a ten-year period, the end of the Cold War and budget constraints have led to a revision in submarine planning.

	Nuclear-powered Ballistic Missile Submarines
		Ohio's keel was laid in April 1976; she was launched three years later and commissioned in November 1981.
		The Ohio class was designed specifically to carry Trident II missiles, which are much larger than Poseidon or Trident I missiles.
		Submarine building proceeded at a furious pace in the early 1960s, as the United States strove to deploy a major component of its Strategic Triad.

		Ohio's state bird, the cardinal, and state flower, the red carnation, are shown on this 20¢ stamp, Scott 1987.

	Ohio-class SSGN-726 Tactical Trident
		The Ohio class cruise missile submarine (SSGN) program entails the refueling and conversion of the four SSBNs to dedicated cruise missile launch submarines to support the Land- Attack/Strike mission.
		The unarmed missile was launched vertically from one of the submarine’s missile tubes and transitioned to cruise flight, flying its planned mission at the Eglin Air Force Base C Range using global positioning satellite navigation, with recovery occurring at Eglin.
		USS Ohio (SSGN 726), the Navy’s first modern guided-missile submarine, took a significant step towards rejoining the fleet 19 December 2005, when it arrived at Puget Sound Naval Shipyard in Bremerton, Wash., with a broom atop its sail to signify its clean sweep of the ship’s initial sea trials.

	Trident
		Although the missiles have no pre-set targets when the submarine goes on patrol, Tridents missiles are capable of being rapidly targeted, should the need arise, using secure and constant at-sea communications links.
		These submarines are fitted with four torpedo tubes for the Mk 48 ADCAP torpedoes which, along with countermeasure devices, provide defense against hostile ASW forces.
		The most important defensive feature of these submarines is their stealth characteristics -- they are among the quietest nuclear-powered submarines ever built.

	sci.military.naval FAQ, Part G - Submarines
		Some earlier submarine classes, in particular the Sturgeon class, were decommissioned for similar reasons, while older classes were simply at the end of their service lives and were due for replacement.
		It was planned to build three or four submarines per year during from 1989 to 2000, for a total of 29 submarines at a total cost of $36 billion.
		It is also clear that the CIA knew the condition of the submarine, leading to speculation that the submarine was broken in two (or more) pieces, with the moon pool built to accommodate the largest pieces.

	Submarine launched ballistic missile - Wikipedia (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Submarine launched ballistic missiles or SLBM's are ballistic missiles delivering nuclear weapons that are launched from submarines.
		Modern variants usually deliver multiple independently targetable reentry vehicles (MIRVs) each of which carries a warhead and allows a single launched missile to strike a handful of targets.
		The ballistic missile submarines had great strategical importance for the USA and Soviet Union during the cold war, as they could hide from satellite surveillance and fire their nuclear weapons without much warning, even close to the opponent's coast.
