Nuclear Sub Retrofitted As Special Forces Base

The US Navy's oldest Trident missile submarine, the USS Ohio, has been stripped of its nuclear missiles and retrofitted as a mobile base of operations for NAVY SEALS. The submarine now has Tomahawk cruise missiles, a covert-missions planning room, a training rooms, a gym and two underwater vehicles mounted on the outside so Seals can move from sub to shore without surfacing. Best of all, the sub can launch robot drones to gather intelligence. I want one.
