Inspired to do this by various things, Novice doing the French one, working on my SMS nation's SLBM, and the general lack of them(only D5 & A3 had been done, poorly in the case of D5). So here's America's last line of defense in her Nuclear Deterrence! ![[ img ]](http://www.majhost.com/gallery/Belkaland/SBFDimages/american_slbm-sb.png)

Well, you can certainly see where Trident II gets the extra range from! |

Indeed, it surprised me in just how much bigger it is compared to the Trident 1. |

IIRC the C-4 was constrained (size wise) by the need to deploy on old Polaris boats. The D-5 had no such limitation as the Ohio class was built with larger launch tubes. |

Seems right. Comparing Trident II with Polaris A-1, I didn't realize the size difference between the Polaris family and Trident.Now maybe someone will make Russian SLBMs and Chinese. |

Awesome, I'll start on them tonight. Might even do an SS-18 Satan mod for SLBM duties! CVN-size SSBN anyone?
