Why are those two paragraphs at the end of the article like that? Seems out of place. Also, much of that info seems general to the Los Angeles class submarine. --Ortzinator 21:22, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

I moved them. But now I'm wondering if that text is copyvio from here [1]. -- Mikeblas 19:28, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

A Question

Does anyone else think this article is too short? RaptorR3d (talk) 23:36, 17 July 2008 (UTC)

Inactivated?

The Navy announced plans to inactivate Los Angeles on Nov 2. It's now Nov 4 and I can't find anything in the news, except that the captain has been re-assigned to USS La Jolla (SSN-701). La Jolla commanding officer fired Rees11 (talk) 02:02, 5 November 2009 (UTC)

http://www.navytimes.com/news/2010/01/navy_LAdecom_012210w/ Here is an article that says it is to be inactivated. Check it out. 96.243.206.236 (talk) 20:55, 27 January 2010 (UTC)

Oldest sub

Does anyone know what the oldest sub in active service will be after Los Angeles is decommissioned? Rees11 (talk) 14:54, 22 January 2010 (UTC)

USS Philadelphia (SSN-690) is the numerical oldest by hull number and by commissioning. Her inactivation was announced on 20 July 2009 (scheduled for 10 June 2010 with decommissioning to occur at a later date). Then the next in line would be USS Memphis (SSN-691), but there has not been an inactiviation announcement yet for that boat. -MBK004 02:57, 23 January 2010 (UTC)
We have a mystery. Pearl Harbor Bids Farewell to USS Los Angeles says it's USS Bremerton (SSN-698), which is several years newer than either Philadelphia or Memphis. Rees11 (talk) 13:23, 23 January 2010 (UTC)
Both Philadelphia and Memphis are in "Pre-Inactivation Restricted Availability," whatever that is. Maybe Bremerton is the oldest that's still fully active. Rees11 (talk) 13:36, 23 January 2010 (UTC)
You are probably correct on fully active, but Philadelphia PIRA in 2006 and won't be decommissioned until 2010. That means that Memphis which completed it in 2008 could last until 2012. Also, Bremerton gets the oldest crown by a month, USS San Francisco (SSN-711) was commissioned in April 1981, Bremerton was commissioned in March 1981. I'm sure you're aware of List of Los Angeles class submarines for quick reference... -MBK004 13:50, 23 January 2010 (UTC)

Reactor power

The infobox says propulsion is rated at 26 MW, but S6G reactor says 150 MW. Even if you assume that not all of the reactor's rated output is available for propulsion, and that the real numbers are classified, this seems like a big discrepancy. Rees11 (talk) 17:46, 24 March 2010 (UTC)
