It also packs the payload of 24 Trident Nuclear Missiles that are more powerful than any bomb dropped ever

..which means it'll be refueling in the next 3-4 years.
Give me an aircraft carrier that just refueled and can go for another 25 years.
Submarine life sucks.

Gotcha. I was wondering why he stated that in the OP. The USN reactors are normally refueled every 25 years or so and ships/subs are retired at 50 years.
The point still stand, though: Submarine life sucks.

I didn't know it was that easy. Is there a fuel gauge to let you know when the "tank" is running low?

Nah. The have 25 or so expectancy on the USN reactors.
If the calculations (and actual) on what rod height it takes for the Reactors to become critical are getting up there, they know it's close to a refuel.
