A very good idea indeed. I'll be sure to watch this thread from now on. Come on spill the secrets

LoBlo · 02-05-09, 01:41 AM

By the way. For anyone interested in downloading and saving the videos above, I've found that keepvid.com is a great site for capturing youtube video. I find it nice to have the vids saved on disk as sometimes they will disappear from youtube after a copyright complaint arises or such. Wish I had saved that old Future Weapons on the Virginia class submarine before it disappeared...

Nice thread

I think I'm going to consolidate my post into my first post to prevent clutter.

LOBLO,

Not wanting to be picky - the Film entitled "Trafalgar Class Documentary in Nato War Exercises (runtime 60minutes)" v. good by the way.

The submarine isn't a trafalgar Class, it is HMS Warspite (from the first all UK built Nuke class as HMS Dreadnought has a US reactor) which was a Valiant Class submarine - the Valiant/Churchill class was the precursor to the Swiftsure and Trafalgar classes

Thanks for the heads up

added a couple of vids. One is a French language documentary of the Le Triomphant and the other is a 10 minute vid of a Ohio class Trident Missile launch.

The french documentary one was very interesting. 2 things caught my attention

the crew was authorized to drink wine during meals
the chief medical officer is required before going out to sea to be operated of the apendicitis (of course a 1 time operation). The reason being that in the past, one medical officer had apendicitis during an operational cruise, and had to be evacuated because he could not operate on himself. This required for a second ssbn to be put to sea to continue the "dissuation" since the first sub was going to surface.

Do other navies have a similar requirement for the medical officer ?

Not that I've heard of, but you could probably ask the RL Submariner's in the RL Submariner's thread.

btw. I'm looking for any pictures/videos of the HMS Astute control room layout looks like if anyone has run across anything.

Added Futures Weapons Coverage of the USS Texas (Virginia Class Submarine) (runtime 15 minutes).

One commentary about the documentary above. What's with the Virginia's control room? There had to have been 30 people in there. Is that how most SSNs operate during battlestations: 20-30 people crammed into the control room with a little chaos thrown in as well?

Few minutes article about the Israeli Dolphine Sub.
Its in hebrew but it doesn't matter since its not informative in any way, no numbers or abilities are mentioned, its kind of "moral-boost" article.
