USS Pennsyvania (Ohio Class)

The biggest and best, . . over 520 feet long and weighing 18,750 tons, . . she carries more fire power than all the bombs and shells fire in both world wars, . . she was commissioned 20 years ago and her nuclear reactor has worked all those years on a ball of uranium no bigger than your fist, what a fantastic achievement in technology.

She's number one on the count-down from 10 - 1 in this vid.



PS : I could tell them where to deliver the missiles.

Boy, this is down right scary stuff. I see the United Kingdom is #2 but look at all Russia and China have.

It's not frightening except for those who wish us harm, . . these subs have kept the world from nuclear disaster for over 50 years, . . long may they continue to sail and bless the brave lads sailing in them.

God bless America and The United Kingdom for keeping us from harm.

Commenting on the amount of fuel it's used over the 20 years, it's time they started building more nuclear power stations here to save our fossil fuels.
