i think that its test and crush depths are still classified, but it is a safe bet that they can dive ~1000 ft. they normally operate way above that though.
The Los Angeles class submarine is nuclear powered.
Virginia class submarine
Strategic nuclear deterrence
This depends on both the role (e.g. missile, attack, research) and class of the submarine. The only thing that defines a submarine as nuclear is that it derives its power from nuclear reactors, it does not need to carry nuclear weapons (although almost all do).Role defines the purpose the submarine was designed to fulfillClass is the specific "model" of the submarine
The volume of the hull of a Kilo-class submarine is approximately 1,300 to 1,500 cubic meters. This volume can vary slightly depending on the specific variant of the Kilo-class submarine. The Kilo-class is designed for anti-submarine and anti-surface warfare, and its hull shape is optimized for underwater operations.
India launched its first Domesticaly built Nuclear Submarine July 26, 2009. It had been working with Russia since mid 2002 to lease a Akula Class Submarine.
The weight of a submarine varies significantly based on its type and purpose. A small research submarine might weigh around 100 tons, while larger military submarines, such as nuclear-powered ones, can weigh over 10,000 tons when submerged. The heaviest submarines, like the Russian Typhoon class, can exceed 24,000 tons. Overall, submarines are designed to be heavy enough to submerge and navigate underwater effectively.
There is NO submarine called 'Typhoon' in the US Navy, nor has there ever been. Typhoon is a Russian nuclear submarine. -The current USS Typhoon is a 370 ton Cyclone class patrol launch..
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.
Beluga class submarine was created in 1988.
Until 1959, the Triton, one of the first-generation Nuclear subs was the longest, and the first US submarine to have two independent reactors. She measured 447 ft 6 in (136.40 m) overall. Then, the longest current class of submarine, the Ohio-class, at 560 ft (170 m), was built, and is now the longest submarine in the US Navy.
This is the USS California, a Virginia-class nuclear sub. that was commissioned on 29th November 2011. She is the 8th of her class type, and her serial number is SSN 781.
