US Navy announces nuclear submarine passed through Strait of Hormuz amid tensions with Iran

[White 6]

Completely stealth...I'm sure the move was announced to show we can anytime we want....

Nice reply. I am not a navy guy and doubt you are either, but I notice what looked like a hump behind the conning tower and looked up the USS Georgia, followed to the entry on Ohio Class submarines and saw a picture showing it to look like a small submarine, propeller clearly visible. If you have a huge bllistic missile submarine, why piggy back a small sub? Any Navy people out here?

The USS Georgia was retrofitted to be an SSGN. They no longer carry the ballistic missiles. They now carry cruise missiles and the like. The smaller sub piggybacking on the USS Georgia is likely some sort of special forces stealth sub.

And speaking of stealth, FBM subs are known for being almost impossible to detect. Changing them over to cruise missiles gives the task force an edge against other ships and land targets.

Yeah, picked up on the SF use, then looked up and found the picked up a 66 man "special operator" contingent with the retrofit. Navy gets cool useful toys.

Thank god democrats arent in power or they would give the sub to Iran full of americans to take prisoner like the speed boats and drones Obama/chinacrats gave them

That would never happen but please lie some more we need a good laugh at someone.

You are mistaking Oblama for Reagan...

This idiot Chinacrat tells this would never happen than quotes me again and tells me Reagan did it.

Obviously he has no clue what Im refering to. Totally ignorant.



Democrats...

Another branch of the CCP

or

The CCP's useful idiots

Reagan gave Iran, missiles, aircraft parts, money when it was illegal, Oblama gave back the money that was frozen assets of Iran when the hostages were taken........Now, go act stupid some more we need the laughs.

Still has no clue.

And the money Obama gave Iran was like giving a terrorist his bomb back. Kerry even admitted some of the money would fund terrorist. That's why we kept it from them to begin with.

Wonder how many people were killed by terror attacks funded by that money?

From what I understand, when they convert the FBMs to SSGNs, they use the space from 22 of the ballistic missile tubes. 2 of the tubes are converted for use for divers and special forces missions. A lot easier than using the escape trunk.

An American nuclear-powered guided-missile submarine traversed the strategically vital waterway between Iran and the Arabian Peninsula on Monday, the U.S. Navy said, a rare announcement that comes amid rising tensions with Iran.

US Navy announces nuclear submarine passed through Strait of Hormuz amid tensions with Iran

The unusual transit in the Persian Gulf's shallow waters comes some two weeks before the anniversary of the American drone strike in January that killed a top Iranian military commander.

Again the USA is the worlds aggressor in everything !
Dismantle the military

Georgia was converted from a ballistic missile sub to a cruise missile sub. They took out the Nuclear ballistic missile launchers and added the capability to fire a crap ton of cruise missiles.

it's basically a stealthy artillery platform.

Makes sense. Saw interior drawing of normal Ohio Class, but not configured as SSGN and the drawings nor pictures of Georgia showed a mini sub attached at commissioning or prior to the retrofit. In the picture for the article, it just looked like a large tank, apparently the end with the prop was pointed toward the conning tower. I am not swift on Naval boats. Tankers don't get much schooling on naval ship and sub identification.

Probably there to let a Seal team reach out and touch someone.

That is a dry shelter for use by Navy SEALs equipment.

A lie is a lie and if you cannot come up with some valid proof I will be forced to refer to you as.,.,.,..,., " TheGreatSatanwithwarts"
It seems you missed the agreement Iran made with the USA and some European countries. The Iranians agreed to hold back on enriching their uranium stockpile to an atomic bomb level.

Iran complied and they are still complying today.

Trump trashed the treaty while the Iranians are still complying.
I pray Biden can cool off the Zion camp without hurting the Chosen's feelings.
But if they want to cry like a spoiled child send them two (2) crates of coved disinfected Kleenexes
