In a strategic move that underscores America's naval might, the United States Central Command has announced the deployment of an Ohio-class nuclear-powered submarine to its area of operations in the volatile Middle East region.
Pentagon officials have previously indicated that the Ohio-class, which represents the pinnacle of the submarine fleet, has the capability to be armed with nuclear warheads, reinforcing its role as a deterrent in international waters.
Notably, the Ohio-class is renowned as the largest class of ballistic missile submarines in the world, a testament to its significant striking power and stealth.
