Josh+Follow🇺🇸 New U.S. Attack Submarine Delivered USS Idaho (SSN 799) The U.S. Navy has officially taken delivery of its newest Virginia-class fast attack submarine, the USS Idaho (SSN 799). Built by General Dynamics Electric Boat, the submarine represents the cutting edge of undersea warfare capabilities. It’s designed for a wide range of missions — from intelligence gathering and surveillance to anti-submarine and anti-ship warfare. The Virginia-class submarines are known for their stealth, advanced sonar systems, and firepower. The USS Idaho features vertical launch systems for Tomahawk missiles, improved acoustic quieting, and the latest in navigation and combat control tech. It will soon undergo final testing and trials before joining the active fleet. This delivery strengthens the U.S. Navy’s underwater edge at a time of rising global maritime tensions, particularly in the Indo-Pacific and European waters. As submarine threats evolve, so does America’s fleet — and USS Idaho is a powerful symbol of that readiness.#Submarines #USNavy #Navy #NavalPower #Superyacht #DefenseTech #SubmarineWarfare #63Share
