Columbia-class submarine

The Columbia-class submarine is a new class of nuclear-powered ballistic missile submarines designed for the U.S. Navy. These submarines are highly advanced, capable of remaining hidden beneath the ocean surface for long periods, and serve as a key part of the country's strategic nuclear deterrent. Equipped with submarine-launched ballistic missiles, they can operate quietly and discreetly, ensuring they can respond in times of conflict. The Columbia-class is built to replace older submarines, providing a modern, reliable, and secure way to maintain national defense and stability through second-strike capability.
