What Trump’s approval of nuclear submarines means

1. SMR stands for “Small Modular Reactor,” which refers to a small nuclear reactor with an electricity output of less than 300 megawatts. Compared to diesel-powered submarines, nuclear-powered submarines are powerful enough to move around at high speed. As the steel thickness of the submarine’s outer shell removes the weight limit, it can also be used as a submersible of 1,000 meters. How can a submarine sink to the ground of 1,000 meters and stay still… The new tactic is to charge batteries by docking with diesel-powered submarines and supplying electricity from the deep sea to multiple diesel-powered submarines.
2. The entire world can serve as a stage for operating nuclear submarines and could become the “Ocean Navy.” Why does it become nothing more than a nuclear submarine? An aircraft carrier is also capable of high-speed and long-distance maneuvering with its nuclear capability. After Jang Bo-go of the Silla Dynasty, it will serve as the foundation for Korea’s naval expansion around the world.
3. Foundations for SMR power plants will be set up. Eventually, power plants such as SMR start with military weapons. SMR will not be able to be mounted on large tankers or merchant ships. Even if it is small, it is a nuclear power plant, so it has to be operated and managed by dozens of doctoral personnel.
4. Export of nuclear-powered submarines/carriers will be possible? It could be a business that is 10 times the price of a conventional diesel-powered submarine or cruiser. Operating a large-sized warship through SMR will increase operational capability of refueling long-distance operation of incoming missiles. Indeed, an Arsenal Ship-type warship with 1,000 missiles will be operated.
5. When SMR-related industries become active, SMR and wind power are supplied as data center power at night and solar panel solar power is supplied during the day. Battery ESS and network construction enable AI data center construction of IT companies around the world. In fact, it is advantageous to build HVDC power networks in Korea.
6. What remains to be done is permission for reprocessing nuclear waste. Nuclear fuel waste is enormous in SMR operation, so nuclear waste treatment agreements and permits are required to operate commercial SMR.
7. Negotiations over the reprocessing of nuclear weapons should also take place. During the Moon Jae-in administration, President Moon Jae-in asked the government to limit the missile range. Under the Lee Jae-myung administration, all achievements related to national defense, including approval for the construction of nuclear submarines, came from the left-wing administration. What’s going on here?
8. Still, you’re selling your country to Kim Jong Un. These days, it’s called Xie Xie Xie Ming because it’s sold to China. That’s why you brought the Chinese issue. To survive in China in the South China Sea, we need nuclear submarines… Does Xie Xie Ming mean to eat China?
9. The key is how to overcome China’s economic sanctions and trade retaliation against the suspension of exports of various raw materials such as rare earths.
