Nuclear submarines typically generate between 20,000 to 40,000 horsepower from their nuclear reactors. This immense power allows them to operate at high speeds and depths for extended periods without the need for surface refueling. The exact horsepower can vary depending on the class and design of the submarine.

What is the difference between a bioreactor and nuclear reactor?
A nuclear reactor uses either nuclear fission or nuclear fusion to generate electricity, while bio-reactors use the excretions of many animals to generate electricity.

Where is nuclear energy?
Nuclear energy is harnessed in nuclear power plants, where nuclear reactions generate heat to produce electricity. This form of energy is used to generate about 10% of the world's electricity, with countries such as the United States, France, and China having significant nuclear energy capacity.
How is radioisotopes used in nuclear reactors?
Radioisotopes are used in nuclear reactors as fuel to generate heat through nuclear fission. The heat produced is used to generate steam, which drives turbines to generate electricity. Radioisotopes such as uranium-235 and plutonium-239 are commonly used in nuclear reactors.
How many bombs can a submarine have?
