Nuclear submarines are powered by an incredible
amount of energy, with just 4 kilograms of
uranium enough to fuel them for an astoundngn
)F
30 years without the need for refueling: This remarkable eficiehoy is thanks to the use of?7, 325
highly enriched uranium (HEU), which contains
90% or more of uranium-235. This type ofp FOR
uranium is key to the submarine's ability to
remain submerged for extended periods, offering

a level of autonomy and operational endurance that traditional fuel sources simply can't match .
