Subject: pump jet propulsion
markrigh    12/14/2007 4:30:31 PM
Ohio class submarines were refitted with pump-jet propulsion which wasn't part of the original design, but does this still make ohio sub quieter than Vanguards or Le Triomphant class subs which implemented this feature during the design process? And with the Borei class sub coming, maybe the Navy should urge for a new class of boomer?

there aren't too many nukes with pump jets - but Ohios aren't one of them.
 
has anyone come across any updated photos of the Kilo with a pumpjet?  (first spotted about 12 months ago in dry dock)
