The term "Red Shark" can refer to two different anti-submarine weapons:
1. *K745A1 Red Shark (South Korea):* This is a real-world, vertically launched anti-submarine missile (VLS ASW) system developed by South Korea. Here are the details:
* *Origin:* South Korea (Agency for Defense Development, LIG Nex1)
* *Deployment:* 2010 onwards
* *Platforms:* KDX-II and KDX-III destroyers of the Republic of Korea Navy
* *Missile:* K745A1 (Red Shark) - Carries a K745 Blue Shark torpedo
* *Range:* 12 miles (19 kilometers)
* *Guidance:* The missile delivers the torpedo to the target area, then the torpedo uses its own active or passive homing guidance to find and attack the submarine.
2. *Hongsangeo (Red Shark) (South Korea):* This term translates to "Red Shark" in Korean and can be used to refer to the entire K745A1 Red Shark VLS ASW system mentioned above.
*It's important to consider the context to determine which "Red Shark" is being referred to.* In most cases, especially when discussing South Korean military equipment, "Red Shark" likely refers to the K745A1 VLS ASW system.
The USS Ohio (SSGN-726) is an Ohio-class guided-missile submarine currently serving in the United States Navy. Here's a breakdown of its key features and history:
*Type:* Guided-missile submarine (SSGN) - Converted from a ballistic missile submarine (SSBN)
*Origin:* United States
*Builder:* General Dynamics Electric Boat
*Commissioned:* November 11, 1981 (as SSBN-726), February 7, 2006 (as SSGN-726 after conversion)
*Homeport:* Bangor, Washington
*Current Status:* Active
*Length:* 560 feet (171 meters)
*Displacement:* 16,764 metric tons (surfaced), 18,750 metric tons (submerged)
*Armament:*
* Up to 154 Tomahawk cruise missiles (prior to conversion, carried Trident ballistic missiles)
* 4 torpedo tubes (capable of launching Mk-48 torpedoes)
*Crew:* 15 officers, 144 enlisted personnel (two crews for continuous operations)
*History:*
* The USS Ohio was originally constructed as an SSBN, designed to carry Trident ballistic missiles for nuclear deterrence during the Cold War.
* In the early 2000s, the Ohio and three other Ohio-class submarines underwent a conversion program to transform them from SSBNs to SSGNs.
* This conversion involved removing the Trident missile tubes and replacing them with Tomahawk cruise missile launch tubes, significantly increasing the ship's firepower and mission capabilities.
* The USS Ohio rejoined the fleet as an SSGN in 2006.
*Role:*
* The USS Ohio, as a SSGN, is a powerful platform for launching long-range Tomahawk cruise missiles. These missiles can be used for various missions, including land attacks, anti-ship warfare, and supporting ground troops.
* The ship's stealth capabilities allow it to operate undetected in close proximity to enemy shores, making it a valuable asset for strategic strikes.
* The dual crew system allows for continuous operation at sea, extending the deployment time of the submarine.
The USS Ohio is a testament to the adaptability of the US Navy and its strategic nuclear deterrence capabilities.
