PCU Minnesota (SSN-783) is the 10th of a projected 30 Virginia-class submarines. It will be the third United States Navy ship named for the state of Minnesota. Minnesota was laid down on 20 May 2011. The Minnesota was christened on 27 October 2012 in a ceremony attended by many top ranking officials in the U.S. Navy and Congress. After its official commissioning scheduled for 7 September 2013, the Minnesota will be the first ship named after the 32nd state since 1921.
As with other Virginia-class submarines, the Minnesota will operate with a crew of 134 officers and enlisted personnel.
Cmdr. John Fancher, is the commanding officer of the Pre-Commissioning Unit.
On 6 June 2013, Huntington Ingalls Industries announced that the USS Minnesota had been delivered to the Navy. The ship was delivered nearly 11 months ahead of schedule.

===================================
Wow. I was on a LA class sub in the 90's. Cannot believe how techie the SCP has changed. Where is the helm and planes controls? Touch screens? The BCP is all on that one screen?
Hi, was it a newer so called 688i sub or one of the earlier ones? Could you elaborate on the acronyms. Cheers form Poland!
if you want to interview the crew you should do with the off work shift crews , or use shot question to on duty one
There is no sound until about 42 seconds into the video.
I've heard that people on board the Sub's get the best food in the Navy?
*****
I completely understand, if you are away from home for months on end and in an enclosed box 500 feet down you deserve the best food available.
No. Aircraft Carriers. Ice Cream Wednesdays, Lobster Thursday, Fruits and Milk 24/7 etc.
I'll let you know. This is my son's sub. He's in the process of earning his dolphins.
Need more Johnsons, Svensons, Jensons and Nelsons on that boat by God!!
Do they really need so many monitors? Why not have augmented reality visors and use gesture controls via cameras in the visors. Guess the monitors just show how obsolete technology becomes by the time they are developed into a working product.
John Wang augmented reality visors? its not a video game man
jon g But space is tight and there is a need for a lot of displays plus it's not like you can go onto the bridge for a strategic view of the area around you. You're simply showing how limited you are by comparing the idea to a video game. Besides, one of the largest investor in augmented reality displays has been the US military for the display of manuals while technicians are at work.
yes i know the us military investes in that its a common fact.. its just not practical in a sub. i guess being realistic is being limited in your eyes. the monitors arent big or thick its like a flat screen tv so you are REALLY overblowing the problem.. they dont need to go on the bridge to "see" that is what SONAR is for and the other methods they use to hear whats around them. i dont think you have any idea at all how subs work. please refrain from speaking on what you dont know.
jon g What's not practical on a sub are excess equipment which block access to the hull should repairs be needed to stop flooding. Considering the needs of a submarine, visors would be practical so long as sufficient resolution are available. Besides, aren't a periscope a visor of sorts. I'll bet that my engineering degree gives me a fair idea of how sub's work, perhaps it is you that doesn't know what you are talking about. Note that the US army has stated that it is resolution that is holding back their use of visors but a sub isn't looking for small targets hiding in the bush so their resolution criteria should be lower. Visors are also easily replaced and are already used by the military to access repair manuals, the multiple uses would be a big advantage within the confines of a sub. I would chalk up the use of monitors to the fact that it takes decades for technology to be deployed in the design of a sub.
jon g Perhaps you should look into sonar a bit more. The waterfall displays are not really "seeing". Also look into how charts and plots were used by sub's during battle to help them visualize the situation. Of course, one of the purposes of the UK sub commander courses are to develop the skill of maintaining such visualization mentally by the commander. 3d visors would help present the must likely tactical situation as per computer estimates in a manner similar to a view through a periscope or from a bridge which is why they have a bridge in the sail. The sub's of various European countries are shown to have 2d representations of the tactical situation estimated on monitors, replicating the plots and charts of the two world wars. I always found the glass dry erase chart shown in the various "Journey to the Bottom of the Sea" films interesting as it shows they were trying to represent the visualization methods which were at use at the time.
This is a crap video. Just a re-upload of a different one, and this one is worse quality.
The supply officer drops the soap a lot
Why would you say that?
Big Cahoona shhh don't ask
MERICA!
Roll Tide!
2:22 Roll Tide!
