SEAWOLF SSN

Countering the threat of the ultra-quiet non-nuclear subs acquired by third world countries is now a primary mission of U.S. nuclear attack submarines. This state-of-the-art U.S. attack submarine is the quietest nuclear powered submarine currently deployed by any country. With its superior stealth, a tactical speed higher than any other U.S. submarine, and its hardened sail, Seawolf stands ready to tackle missions as varied as the insertion of Special Forces to attacking threats under the polar ice cap. Her Tomahawk missiles make her a threat to inland targets up to 1,400 nm away and her Mk 48 ADCAP torpedoes are lethal to subs and ships alike.
