All 3 of the U.S. Navy’s most powerful submarines were under way at the same time, in the same place
Normally, ships in a particular class take turns deploying. Since they all depend on the same logistics and training infrastructure, it’s most sustainable to divide a given class into thirds.
One third is on patrol. One third is in training. One third is in maintenance. That model explains why the U.S. Navy possesses around 300 front-line ships but deploys only a hundred at a time. But fleet commanders ideally would be able to surge a class during a crisis—sending out more or all of the vessels at the same time. Imagine a war with China. To have any chance of defeating potentially hundreds of Chinese warships, the U.S. Pacific Fleet surely would need to send out more than its usual 50 or 60 ships.
Surging is hard, as it requires the synchronization of a lot of resources. So it’s a big deal when a fleet demonstrates it can do it. It’s a bigger deal when the vessels in question also are among the most powerful in any navy.
