USS George C. Marshall

Last of the 41 for Freedom Class Ballistic Missile Submarines. Marshall was a 640 Class SSBN. The need for this class came from the United States development of late modifications of Poseidon Missile system, and then to the Trident 1 these new missile systems were larger and heavier. The goal not achieved until the mid 80s was to have a system capable of covering targets while the boats could remain in home port. This eliminated the need for costly facilities in Holyloch and other areas outside of the US
