What is the name of the first nuclear submarine?
The USS Nautilus (SSN-571), launched on January 21, 1954 and commissioned on September 30, 1954 at Electric Boat in Groton, CT, was the first nuclear powered submarine to be built. Designed by Naval Engineer Hyman G. Rickover ( Admiral Rickover, "Father of the Nuclear Navy"), the Nautilus broke all records of the day for submerged endurance, including the first submerged transit of the Geographic North Pole.Essentially built as a proving and test design for future nuclear vessels, its successful pressurized water reactor design led to the current nuclear fleet we have today, with a spotless record of operation of nearly 60 years. The Nautilus is now a part of the Submarine Force Library and Museum in Groton, CT, where she was originally built by General Dynamics Electric Boat Division between 1952 and 1954.See more details by following the related link below.
Do Aircraft Carriers carry nuclear weapons?
During the Cold War aircraft carriers had a secondary mission of nuclear warfare and its attack aircraft were nuclear-capable. However, it was policy to neither confirm nor deny the presence of nuclear weapons aboard any naval vessel. Pres. George H.W. Bush cancelled the nuclear mission for all naval forces except SSBN submarines. Today there are no nuclear weapons and no nuclear-capable aircraft on our carriers.
