  • "Submarines have gone from harbor defense to world wide power projection, but it wasn't overnight! Come join us as we discuss how submarine hull design has changed over the past 120 years. From gasoline engines with a 53' 10"" length hull to nuclear power and a 560' length hull.
    Note - when talking about the Los Angeles class - "surfacing through" refers to "surfacing through ice."

    Fun fact: I built the OHIO, LA, and SEAWOLF models pictured in this
    video. Once upon a time the museum was located on the upper-base. Now
    it's outside the base, next to the main-gate, permitting easy access
    to the general public. A fine collection of artifacts and visual presentations, and right at
    the end of a short attached finger-pier is the USS NAUTILUS, open
    (with the exception of the engineering spaces) to the general public.
    The museum is a fine example of your tax dollars at work.

    Brad,
    Good video. I am a former diesel boat submariner who has remained super-interested in subs all of my life.
    Four Comments:
    1. SS-343 USS Clamagore: Like all Balao class subs, she started life visually as almost a "look-alike" of the SS-212 Gato class, except for the different conning tower (sail) design. But post-war Clamagore underwent an upgrading and streamlining GUPPY conversion, first to the Guppy-II with the metal step sail shown and then to one of the 9 Guppy-III subs where a 15 ft plug was added and squared-off "North Atlantic" fiberglass sail and 3 PUFFS fins were installed. I served on the SS-346 USS Corporal, another of these 9 Guppy-III boats.
    2. Clamagore was not the first snorkel boat in the USN. That was R-6 briefly in 1945, followed by Sirago (maybe?) and the Odax in 1947 or 1952 depending on the source cited. The Tench class Odax was the first Guppy-I boat re-design with the topside streamlining, then further upgraded to a Guppy-II.
    3. You are soon going to need to add to your model wall with the new Columbia class replacement for the Ohio subs coming on line. But you know that already.
    4. For comparison, it would be very interesting to add a second model of the SS-1 Holland and perhaps the SS-285 USS Balao (with its different conning tower configuration) to the LEFT end of the model wall where these two VERY important boats can be compared in size and shape to the current classes of nucs.

    this was a very informative quick view at the development of subs throughout the years. great video

    The U.S.S. Triton SSRN-586 looked like an improved Nautilus hull shape. That was a beautiful boat; looked some some sort of Art-Deco sculpture!

    Was hoping for a hullistic approach... this was quite a "pane" & wasn't overwhelmed by the new "glass" of subparmarine

    Pretty cool to see the progression of design . Toured a few . The cramped space of an early sub freaked me out . Don't know how those brave Men were able to do it . I didn't last 20 minutes !

    This is excellent....would be great to know the complement (# of officers and enlisted) on each class.

    You forgot the "ETHAN ALLEN" class SSBN.

    Question, do officers and chiefs even wear working Khakis any more? They sure look better than that wrinkly camo.

    • @submarineforcemuseum1739
      @submarineforcemuseum1739  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      No, working Khakis were phased out of the Navy (as well as dungarees) in 2009-2011.

      What color are "bandaids" in Africa...? YUP What is your background for cammo to "work"... this decision had very little to do with the sea🌊 same thing with the air force

    Albacore could make 33 knots

    OK, as nice as these "models" are, several are completely wrong. As in the USS Albacore, the control surfaces are not in a cross configuration, but in a X config. I spent 4 year on USS Sculpin SSN-590

      It's was basically a test platform. They tried four tail sections.

    Why is it the Skate class is always treated like a red headed step-child?

      The S-girls were fast as hell. Was so impressive when on the surface and up on her step. And you had to love those hanging gardens up in the torpedo rm. The biggest suck that i could see was climbing up the brow at high tide going through the sail. Fun times.
