Nuclear-Powered Submarine

Definition: A nuclear-powered submarine is a type of submarine that is powered by a nuclear reactor, allowing it to operate underwater for extended periods without the need to surface for air. It is equipped with nuclear propulsion, which provides a virtually unlimited range and allows the submarine to remain submerged for months at a time.

Examples:

  • The USS Nautilus was the world's first operational nuclear-powered submarine.
  • Nuclear-powered submarines are able to circumnavigate the globe without ever needing to surface.
  • The development of nuclear-powered submarines revolutionized naval warfare.
  • Nuclear-powered submarines are essential for strategic defense and intelligence operations.
