Why this kit matters
USS Nautilus was the world’s first operational nuclear powered submarine, commissioned by the United States Navy in 1954. Its revolutionary propulsion system allowed it to remain submerged far longer than conventional diesel electric submarines, changing naval strategy forever.
The submarine became famous in 1958 when it completed the first submerged voyage beneath the North Pole. Nautilus proved the strategic and technical value of nuclear submarines and laid the foundation for modern submarine fleets still in service today.
