Diving deeper than the eye can see, swimming faster than the sharks can go, and armed with nuclear missiles that can destroy entire cities, the Virginia-Class Submarines are the single most powerful below-surface vehicles on the planet.

These submarines are our focus in this video; particularly their invincibility born of a rather interesting development process and jaw-dropping features.
