The channel Eurasian Naval Insight had a great analysis of this incident. The conclusion was that it seems very unlikely that it was a nuclear submarine involved, as that shipyard has never been used in the past for nuclear submarine construction, and the waterways near that shipyard are too shallow for nuclear submarines. While it doesn't prove conclusively that it was not a nuclear submarine involved, it casts serious doubt on the legitimacy of this claim.

The American nuclear submarine NR-1 Displaced 400 tons. I often wonder what our Navy would look like if we had mass produced those and use them for tactical insertion of SEAL teams. You could basically make 40 mini subs for the cost of one Ohio class.

[@AmurTiger]

This is why you should read past the cliff-notes version. Speed: 4.5 knots Endurance: 330 man-days Maximum 25 days for 13 person crew Payload: None Going to have to do a lot better to cross the pacific which is a minimum qualification for any US Navy ship

[@cascadianrangers728]

Yeah but the Ohio also has up to 24 slbm Tridents stuffed in it, which is probably where most of the price difference comes from. Navy seals are pretty badass but their power isn't measured in megatons, just the tritium in the nukes probably cost close to the price of everything else on board

[@AmurTiger]

@@cascadianrangers728 The NR-1 also couldn't fit a seal team anyways, it's basically just pretend imagining because they thought 'sub' and figured it would be large enough. At 400t you've squeezed out any of the 'extra' space and left it to just crew basically. It's fundamentally inappropriate in a wartime setting, especially for the US.

[@obbayazit]

US subs are designed for long patrols. So while reactors play a role in size, weapons capacity, living space, comfort etc. are equally important. Probably a slightly smaller sub may be possible, but the cost savings will not be proportional. On top of that other than that cost difference, the USA does not need a smaller sub for it's operational needs. Seals can still be delivered with an attached mini sub, and potential adversaries are accessible through oceans and not need to go through shallow seas.

[@obbayazit]

[@N330AA]

A sterling engine certainly doesn't have less moving parts than a steam turbine which in theory only has 1. And the steam cycle on a nuke sub is closed cycle also. I doubt that they'd use a sterling engine powered by heat from a nuclear reactor as a PWR has a temp of less than 300C and that would require a very bulky Sterling engine to get any decent power output. I tend to doubt this sub is nuclear at all and is probably just a conventional sub with more range.

I don't get those being upset about the news of the alleged sub sinking: if it was made up, it shows your chief adversary is either grossly underestimating you or is losing the edge and has now retorted to mudslinging. Either case would prove you are doing something right. If the news was true, learn the lesson (since it was a first for whatever it is) and be thankful that it happened under the best circumstances - that it wasn't at sea with a full crew; you would also get the chance to find out how the intel was leaked.

Not necessarily. Propeller design is pretty well understood these days. The shrouds you sometimes see are part of the propulsion system that doesn't use a traditional prop.

[@scottstewart5784]

It's about not having to be vulnerable AND out of action on the surface to diesel-charge the batteries. Diesel subs have several days submerged and AIP adds a week or so. but then you have to surface for hours to diesel-charge the batteries and at some point you need more diesel. So nuke replaces diesel, and even though nuke power warming the Stirling fluids is way less efficient than a steam turbine, efficiency in nukes isn't always a pressing concern. This is a great way to improve time on station and on mission.

[@KirkLand-d5s]

Nuclear submarines make more noise than diesels or AIP, which then have to be quieted,because of all that steam machinery they use. Now imagine that nuclear reactor powering a much quieter Stirling engine instead...

[@kotorfanatic3897]

Circa 6:40 ... what if you design a nuclear-powered sub with a smaller amount of fuel, not because you intend to refuel it more often, but because you think a massive conflict with extensive losses is just around corner ... and you won't have to refuel your sub ever because you anticipate that it will be dead before refueling is necessary?

[@echomande4395]

A good breakdown of known facts and speculation. 'Large' nuclear attack submarines can actually be built quite small. The french Rubis class (now being retired) apparently displaced less than 3000 tons and their successors, the Suffren class, less than 4500. These submarines were apparently slower than the stated (much less rumored) top speed of the US' ocean roaming monsters, but that is probably as much a function of the desired mission portfolio (which likely includes litoral work) and accepted endurance as anything else.

If it did suffer some terrible accident and sink, so what? It took the US many years of experience with a large fleet of nuclear submarines to make them safe. EDIT: I apparently need to clarify what I mean here. Poor safety indicates poor experience (safety regulations are written in blood, after all), but, since China hasn't had much of a navy until recently, it (obviously) lacks experience and mishaps are inevitable. Therefore, this event doesn't teach _us_ anything.

[@stefano8936]

So what? so there are many years to prepare.

[@oso1165]

Yea, and they did it in the 1950s lmfao

[@channeldud]

@@oso1165 Just say you hate china instead of pretending like you have some intellectual reason for it. China recently started investing in its Navy, ofc this is gonna happen just like it did with every Navy on earth. Idiot.

ISR and Intel ops are king as missiles easier to strike

My guess is they filled it with their terrible lithium batteries and it caught on fire, lol.

What is the chance that China will arrange their own freedom of navigation expedition

[@Markus117d]

They often do, It's just others don't cry about it & make threats, they just keep an eye on them instead as they go about their legal rights

[@JeffBilkins]

Bullying fishing boats and into other territories is not quite freedom of navigaton

Our navy knows the exact moment of any russian/chinese submarine going out to sea. we got them in a monitoring net, and it works real good.

[@youarebeingtrolled6954]

You cant track subs once they get to the ocean thats the point. Who cares if you can track them as they go out anyone can do that😂

[@WarDaddyUSA]

@@youarebeingtrolled6954 you fool. we have deep water acoustic monitoring all over. especially in the pacific. not talking about the rivers en-route to the ocean. are you a child?

[@john_in_phoenix]

Those acoustic monitoring lines are also subject to "accidentally" getting snagged by trawlers.

This is why you should read past the cliff-notes version. Speed: 4.5 knots Endurance: 330 man-days Maximum 25 days for 13 person crew Payload: None Going to have to do a lot better to cross the pacific which is a minimum qualification for any US Navy ship
