Ohio class submarines - the American nuclear hammer
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 30 июл 2024
- Ohio is a class of American strategic nuclear submarines. The family is made up of 18 boats, of which 14 are ballistic missile submarines (SSBN) and another 4 are cruise missile submarines (SSGN).
With a total displacement of 18,750 tons, Ohio is the largest submarine built in the United States. They are significantly inferior in this indicator to the Soviet "Typhoon" submarines, but they hold the record for arsenal: 24 Trident II ballistic missiles or 154 Tomahawk cruise missiles.
Deliveries were carried out from 1986 to 1997. Ohio-class submarines are the only nuclear missile carriers in the US NAVY and are considered the most powerful element of the nuclear triad. According to various estimates, about 60% of the deployed American nuclear arsenal is located on 14 boats. According to preliminary plans, the submarines will remain in service for about 20 more years and, from the beginning of the 2030s, they will gradually begin to be replaced by boats of a new generation - the Columbia class.
Thanks for watching!

In 1972, during the Vietnam war, I was flying B-52’s from Guam. Our track would take us north of the Philippines for aerial refueling. One night, during a thunderstorm, one of our airplanes lost their systems that provided flight instruments and they lost control. 7 men were forced to bail out into the ocean. They got into their life rafts in high seas. They had sent a distress signal, so a C-130 was dispatched to the scene. They were hundreds of miles from land and in a difficult situation. But, a nuclear submarine, returning to base from a patrol was able to surface and pick up 5 of them. One injury was a broken leg. One crew member died and his body was later recovered. The Air Force greatly appreciates the Silent Service!
Got a tail number or the squadrons name or something so we can look further into this?
That’s a helluva lie……salute!! 😂😂😂

@@maxcorder2211 i will admit i though you were bullshitting. I humbly and respectfully apologise my friend
While smaller than the Typhoon class, it’s easy to forget how large the Ohio class is until you see it next to another boat.
Exactly
Could you imagine working on a Typhoon class ship? Fucking luxury Submarine lol. But the Ohio is nothing scoff at as you pointed out. Also luxurious for Submarine standards.
They are 18 Ohio subs in service 14 of which carry nuclear weapons, they carry 24 trident nuclear missiles each, there is only one typhoon in service and it carries 20 nuclear missiles... there isn’t much of a comparison, after the collapse of the Soviet Union they stopped maintaining the other 5 typhoon that were built. Also the Ohio class are starting to show their age and they are being replaced by 12 Columbia class subs 1 of which is currently under construction and they will carry 16 trident nuclear missiles each
@@brutaladd - what you say is for 2040 dude - the Columbia class to replace the old Ohio. And I bet the US will go broke, like URSS, long before.... In fact, most world economist already say US is almost broke even now, with the world's biggest national debt...
@@mirandela777 yeah your not wrong, I doubt they will build all of them, I am curious to see the performance specs on a modern state of the art ballistic missiles sub so I really only want them to finish the first one the Ohio’s are fine with maintenance
I spent most of my time on a Benjamin Franklin class, C4 Backfit boat. The 1st time I walked onboard an Ohio class submarine, I thought I was on a floating hotel compared to my old boat.
including a giant swimming pool, and other facilities?
@@the_rover1 Yep! There was a huge swimming pool right outside. Also a fitness center and a restaurant 3 times the size of ours.
Tell me all the classified information
Did you guys see spongebob and bikini bottom? C’monnnn, I know it’s classified, but you can tell me!!
@@bmacd2112 lmao 🤣. Swimming pool just outside the doors. 😆 wow. What a comeback.
154 Tomahawk missiles. It's almost 3 Arleigh Burke destroyers. Crazy arsenal
7 missiles in 1 silo
If they are full.
I heard that a lot of the ship's can go out under stocked with missiles. So I presume it is similar with the boats,
They typically deploy with only about 100 missiles. Still, a formidable weapons load
if you use your brain a sec more and look at the displacement , you will realize it is not "crazy" but common sense and simple math... Aside that, the destroyer have a lot of other weapon systems the Ohio do not have - AA missiles, artillery, radar systems, etc...
They have also made 2 silos on a few Ohio's into tomahawk missile launchers so that a boomer can launch them in support of ops if they are the only thing close by. That way the very expensive cruise can be for a reason and not just to threaten the world with anialation
The submarine: The most powerful threat you will never sea.
Get it...., "you will never sea/see" 👀 🙈 lol!?! Get it..... ha ha haha ha😶
...yeah until it runs into something in the South China Sea and has to traverse thousands of miles of ocean on the surface giving away its position and class.
Care to bet that you will never see it?
You can see it from space. Although only four countries would be able to do anything about it until they got closer to the surface.
I sea... what you did there 👀
Russia has one with capabilities of causing a 1400 ft tsunami
"Peace means having a bigger stick than the other guy"
thats actually how a war starts
LOLL
Walk softly and carry a big stick.
Nope, that's how arma races starts. Paranóia sets in... "Peace means no one having a clear advantage" Quark
Then Russia will win, the Typhoon is humongous, The payload is larger the missile compliment more powerful. The strength of a person is not in how hard that they hit, but by the words they use at a table of peace.
I worked on 4 of these beautiful girls from 1984 to 1987 as a First Class sheet metal mechanic. If I was a younger man, I would love to go back to work at Electric Boat in Groton, CT and help train the new youngsters on how to do sheet metal properly!!! I love the Tridents that I worked on. Seriously, if you ever worked on their construction, you gotta step back and take a look...these Trident submarines are beautiful girls!!!
As a senior at university in 1980, I attended a hiring fair with Electric Boat. The recruiter's opening line was, "There are only two types of ships. Submarines and targets.".
I'm a network engineer and I did a lot of the computer systems used on your bases and equipment. I basically did technical work without the orders and a lot more money, hehehe.
I worked on the Control Systems of all of them from 1981 to 1990 redesigning them to be more repair and maintenance friendly and if you ever was allowed in the conning tower you probably would've wondered how would they fix something if it broke?
@@MountainFisher I worked on the back of your genius, man, late 90s. Thanks for the foundation.
@@sid2112 Engineer and Masters in Biology. I did everything for Rockwell who was the main contractor for the SCS or Submarine Control System in CA. I remember walking into the room where it was all assembled as if it was in the sub and somebody asked "Where are the hinges to open the panels to fix problems or change a light bulb?" No kidding. Was pulled off my Life Support System assignment for the Shuttles to do a complete re-design.
edit; I think there were more ECNs engineering change notices on the Trident than any other project I ever worked on and I spent a lot of time in that Mock Up room with 2 sheetmetal mechanics. I worked my way through college doing sheetmetal and TIG welding.
While terrifying, these boats really are the most effective form of nuclear deterrence in existence.
i would say that the SSGN class now holds that distinction.
I would say we’re confidently putting the era of nuclear deterrence behind us by now.
negative...the next-gen "boomer", the Columbia-class, is already in production. as long as other countries have nukes, so shall we. there IS a chance that hypersonic missiles replace nukes as the "ultimate weapon", but even hypersonic missiles can carry nuclear warheads
@@necree509 why do you say that? Deterrence is still the cornerstone of the US military, especially nuclear arsenal.
That’s exactly what makes them terrifying.

I'm not a service man but I was fortunate enough to work with a couple old sub vets at my old job. We built irradiation equipment for military. We had to two technicians that served on subs and told me some crazy stories. One tech Ralph, served on the USS Skate, was one of the engineers that designed the first nuclear submarine. He had stories better than any movie. Many of you probably read the book blind man's bluff, best sub book ever. One of the secret missions they did was during the cold war America discovered an underwater communication cable used by the Russians. Divers from the USS Halibut spliced into the cable allowing US to listen to all Russian naval communications.
The other tech, was one of those divers.
He also told me admiral Rickover tried to court marshall him when he was on guard duty because he tried to get on the boat without his ID and he wouldn't let him pass. He said Rickover called him every curse word in the dictionary but he wouldn't let him pass. Luckily the captain came out and saved him. I got massive respect for anyone that serves on these awesome boats.
If he had let Rickover on board, he would have been court martialled. This was Rickover's way of testing security.
the smallest submarine in ohio:
The four Ohio's which can be armed with upto 154 Tomahawks have turned into carrier killers after the Tomahawk Block V were upgraded with anti-ship capabilities. The Tomahawks are subsonic but a massive salvo of 154 sea-shimming missiles must be a challenge to any modern carrier battle group to defend against.
THE LEGEND HAS RETURNED!

Being on the new construction crew was brutal and extremely rough on us youngsters...lots of mental health issues....some of my very qualified shipmates* didn't make it through the "new commissioning" process...after which we finally went to sea for the first time....😿.....
That said I'm very proud to say I was one of the survivors to have persevered and worked our asses through all of it (construction, 3 sea trials, splitting of the crew into blue/gold, 2 missile test launches)...and then onto 2 FBM deterrent patrols. Great crewmates. (Me, I eventually moved on and spent 3.5 years obtaining an engineering degree at UCF).
I'm amazed my boat is still out there...35+ years after her commissioning....
We had guys who had previously served on diesel-boats on our crew... talk about changing of the guard....ha!
Thanks for the video...

UN : "Everyone cant equip more than 14 ICBM!"
US : "Ok.. imma equip my Ohio sub with 153 tomahawk missiles"
UN : "..."
Can't have more then 14 ICBM carriers. Ohio, Michigan, Florida, and Georgia gave up their Tridents for Tomahawks but the other ships of the Ohio class still carry all 24 Tridents they were designed to carry. Also it was most likely the START I treaty between the US and Russia that limited the amount of sub launched nukes more then the UN. As both the US and Russia among others would just out right veto the UN trying to tell them how many of anything they can have.
tomahawks are not ICBMs
cant even have submarine in ohio💀💀💀💀
Can't in Kentucky, Tennessee, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Michigan, Kentucky, Nebraska, Wyoming, and the one I served 4 patrols on, Henry M. Jackson, either.

Well done on your video, Sir!
whilst? Did you also serve on the HMS Limey? lol (just pulling your leg)
SSBNs are the first real sea monsters. Prior to 1965, sea monsters were a myth.
Polaris was in use from 1961-1980, they were small but deadly
A submarine??? From uhh… OHIO????? Uhhh guys… this is epic 😏😂😂👌🏻
I served 2 tours onboard one of these, 14 deployments in total. Loved it and would do it again in a minute.
Safest weapon in ohio

Weakest weapon in Ohio.
These Ohio class nuke subs are terrifying and rock solid. The Nimitz class carriers are scary to dictators, because they can see the squadrons flying along their coast, but an Ohio is complete stealth.
Yeah, I thought about that every time that Chinese Admiral started rattling his saber. Then they had that "minor" incident when one hit a cargo container in the South China sea and had to surface. The Admiral shut up after watching this video, just kidding.

Nahhh, ohio submarine💀💀💀
Yes...Ohio-class boats smaller in terms of displacement than the Typhoon class, but pack a bigger punch.
More importantly...of the 18 Ohio-class boats, ALL are still on active duty, but only one of the Typhoon-class is still on duty.
Fun facts:
--US warship classes are named after the first ship. (Yeah...we're boring and predictable like that.) The notable exception is the Thresher-class which was renamed Permit-class after the Thresher sank with all hands in 1963.
--In compliance with treaties signed with the Soviet Union, four of the Ohio-class boats were converted from carrying ballistic missiles to carrying cruise missiles: Ohio, Michigan, Florida and Georgia. Because Ohio was the first boat converted, she has the distinction of being the namesake for two different classes of warship.
Yes, the O/M/F/G team
When Soviet Union ceased,did them treaties expire?
Russia does not follow any treaties..Do they?
The problem is US new warheads are around 60 years old with the minuteman 3 and we're behind Russia... US fell behind Russia.. Russia has hypersonic missiles and RS28 makes the minuteman 3 look like a baby. Let's not forget about the new nuclear torpedo Russia has too.

It wouldn't take much to send China back to the 7th century.
Speak softly, and carry a big stick.
And now it is alleged that the former occupant of the White House told Australian businessman and Mar-a-Lago club member Anthony Pratt very sensitive secrets about US nuclear submarine capabilities , as well as to scads of other people at his Mar-a-Lago club , long after the former occupant of the White House had left office . The FBI and

And who knows what that traitor was doing with classified documents in all this time . THAT'S what was in our White House for four years .

These boats are HUGE. The boomer I was on had 3 decks or levels. The Ohio class has four. They're also about 10 feet wider than the class I was on. I was already active duty when USS Ohio was supposed to get underway for first sea trials. We left port at Groton ahead of Ohio. Of course, there was a Russian AGI lurking off the coast of Connecticut. They intercepted us and rode alongside for awhile. Got their photos and so on. Then broke off to await Ohio.

At 2:48, The name of the first ship in a design class is that design's "Class" name. So the future ships are not "eventually give the same name". They are given their own name but are the same design/class as the first. As in the Battleship Missouri on which the Japanese surrender was signed is a Iowa class battleship. Iowa being the first of that design/class built.
