The U.S. Navy's Seawolf-Class Submarine Nightmare Is An Awful Reality

Summary and Key Points: The Seawolf-class submarines are considered the best undersea vessels, equipped with advanced torpedoes, missiles, and capable of high-speed silent cruising.

-Originally designed to counter Soviet submarines, only three Seawolf-class subs were built due to their high cost. The U.S. Navy prioritized expensive Ford-class aircraft carriers over expanding the Seawolf fleet.

-With just two operational Seawolf subs, the strategic advantage is limited, especially against rivals like China and Russia.
