10 mighty submarine

This list is based on the following factors;

• Armament
• Offensive and Defensive systems
• Size
• Speed
• Propulsion System

The Graney Class of Russia could be the best among all but there was limited information as far as its offensive capabilities are concerned, The Virginia Class is not better than the Astute Class and if i could find out more about the Graney Class that would be second, so don’t bitch about it, the USN isn’t the best at everything. Finally number of missiles carried aboard does not = good so don’t come out with some “The Astute class only carries 38 torpedoes it only takes one to sink a NIMITZ Class Carrier. Starting from number 10
