How America's Nuclear Submarines Get Resupplied at Sea

Underway replenishment of a submarine is very much dependent on, you guessed it, where the submarine is! But no matter what, there is a way to get to the sub. This is #NotWhatYouThink #NWYT #longs

"Alright who wants some uber eats?"

"Oh me captain!"

[lyndalepowell]

imagine seeing a fleet of american ships with 69 on their hull pulling up off the coast

[DrJiKentauriuzHero]

The 3 "69" ships was the information I never knew I needed.

"Putting tomatoes on a sub" 🤣🤣🤣

[bucketman]

When you need an entire strategy to deliver food

"They forgot our tomatos."
"Oh nevermind here comes the drone they know."

US Navy should create a 69th nice fleet with all ships marked as 69.
69 NICE.

0:44 that’s such an awesome name for the C-17! Spirit of Kamehameha

I imagine we'll have drone-subs able to replenish manned subs while both are underwater before we'll have fully autonomous subs. Hydroponics is tricky stuff!

[benbianco]

Have submarines with docking hatches similar to Star Wars that allow food supplies to be easily sent over all underwater

USS Eisenhower earned the nickname "The Love Boat" because of her hull number, and because she was the first ship to deploy women as part of the crew, and 15 of them had to be reassigned because of pregnancy.

Success is not final; failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts."

Fascinating. I think about a vast array of things unrelated to my tiny world, but I've never pondered feeding seamen in a submarine. Thanks for doing it for me.

Space exploration will probably play a huge role in making submarines self sufficient. After all, spaceships are really just flying submarines.

0:50 Delivering a humvee to the sub, probably.

[rmm]

1:48 I thought the air on today's subs is actually cleaner and 'fresher' than what you and I are breathing?

[raymondjames]

Ah, the c17,
Many a fine memories of sitting next to battle buddy's trying not to laugh as I watched the fear almost boil out of them from the flights as I blasted pantera in my earbuds. ☺😄

Interesting! I'd always run with the idea that on a 90 day tour, the crew enjoyed the fresh fruit & veg until it ran out and then simply swapped over to canned good. This idea of surfacing to take on supplies seems to go against the whole idea of stealth.

anyways can you explain why this motto is accepted in air force?
