A newly released image from CENTCOM shows a US submarine passing through the Suez Canal. It is one of four Ohio-class submarines to have been transformed to carry large numbers of special forces… and no less than 154 Tomahawk cruise missiles!
An announcement
On November 5, the US Central Command (CENTCOM) published on its X account an image of an Ohio-class nuclear-powered submarine crossing the Suez Canal towards the Red Sea (probably the USS Florida, SSGN- 728). The Ohio class is a class of submarine developed during the Cold War for the US Navy to carry out nuclear deterrence missions. However, the image below in no way shows an Ohio-class nuclear ballistic missile submarine (SSBN)… but rather a nuclear-powered ballistic missile submarine (SSGN) of the Ohio class. this same Ohio class.
