Their motto “Going Where Others Can’t” There are 23,000 men and women in the Force . There are now four submarine classes : The Ohio, Los Angeles, Seawolf and Virginian. Trident submarines developed during the cold war for major conflicts and massive destruction of the enemy were converted to the Ohio Class to reduce missiles.Potential enemies operate diesel subs now rather than nuclear subs; this presents new challenges for the fleet. North Korea has 53 diesel subs. New Submarines are designed for multiple missions. Underwater Warfare; War on Terror; Intelligence & Information Operations. - Bill Zeller
