I note a column for service life is added. I say it would be nice to add a list of the dates of the Mid-Life refueling; or possibly the currently anticipated retirement year. Thnaks Wfoj3 ( talk) 10:26, 24 April 2020 (UTC)
The ohio class SSBN fleet slbm tubes were reduced from 24 to 20 in 2017, several months before the compliance deadline of the NEW START treaty... you can confirm in these links https://www.navy.mil/Resources/Fact-Files/Display-FactFiles/Article/2169580/fleet-ballistic-missile-submarines-ssbn/
as of February 5, 2018, the Navy has completed the elimination of four launch tubes on all 14 of its Trident submarines. pg 22-23 https://sgp.fas.org/crs/nuke/R41219.pdf 2603:8000:9D00:694F:7021:1333:F6AB:D303 ( talk) 05:10, 21 October 2022 (UTC)
@ Vepr157: Please don't change content while leaving a conflicting source attached. Commentatry in the edit summary is not sufficient. If you wish to change the horsepower (shp) value in the powerplant parameter of the infobox, you'll need to find a reliable source to support your change, (one that also explains the descrepancy with the current source). Thank you - wolf 13:45, 13 January 2023 (UTC)
...the result was a TRIDENT submarine design of massive proportions. The projected boat would have a 30,000 ton displacement and would be powered by two 30,000 shp reactors...". I'm not sure where "35,000" came from, but it appears that the "60,000" value, which is also supported by the first ref, is more accurate. Also, please note I have don't have a pony in this race, I don't care which value is there, as long as it's accurately supported by the best sourcing available and the article is stable. Thanks - wolf 02:53, 14 January 2023 (UTC)
Is there anything wrong about changing it from 30000 to 60000 shp? Neildon Garcia ( talk) 07:25, 14 January 2023 (UTC)
There's a couple problems. First, you keep reverting, despite the edit warring policy, and second, as Fnlayson already explained, its denoted as "2x 30,000", but you keep changing it to "2x 60,000", which is both incorrect and not supported by the attached source. - wolf 07:50, 14 January 2023 (UTC)
As a result of all this, I see you've now been blocked for 24 hours. I suggest you take that time to read through all information provided to you, both here and on your talk page, (including all the links provided as well). You will find the 24 hours will go by quickly and you will be free to edit again. If, for some reason, you still feel the "propulsion" parameter of the infobox needs to be changed, don't just go and change it again. That will likely lead to another, longer block. Instead, come here to the talk page, (to this thread) and state what change you would like to see made. Make sure to include any sources and/or guidelines that may support you request, and then we'll go from there. - wolf 10:27, 14 January 2023 (UTC)
The article references the ASDS as if it's currently in use, but Wikipedia says ASDS was cancelled in 2009 after the prototype was destroyed in a 2008 fire. Should that be changed? DaBunny42 ( talk) 15:34, 9 November 2023 (UTC)
