Ohio class submarines

The United States has 18 Ohio class submarines:

14 nuclear-powered SSBNs, each armed with 24 Trident II SLBMs; they are also known as "Trident" submarines, and provide the sea-based leg of the triad of the United States strategic deterrent forces
4 nuclear-powered SSGNs, each armed with 154 Tomahawk cruise missiles with conventional warheads

The 14 Trident II SSBNs together carry around fifty percent of the total US strategic warhead inventory. The exact number varies in an unpredictable and highly classified manner, below a maximum set by various strategic arms limitation treaties. Although the missiles have no pre-set targets when the submarine goes on patrol, the platform, when required, is capable of rapid targeting using secure and constant at-sea communications links. The Ohio class are the largest submarines ever constructed for the US Navy, and are second only to the Russian Typhoon class submarine in mass and size. A single submarine can wield the destructive power of more than nine times the total allied ordnance dropped in the European theater in World War II.
