Sea Swap = More Bang for Your Buck

For decades, the Navy has assigned two crews apiece to its ballistic missile subs, or "boomers". One crew is out at sea in the sub while the other is training and resting back home. The idea is that double crews let you squeeze more sailing days out of your ships. Boomers are ideally suited because they sail on rigid schedules that let you plan rotations far in advance. ...

Die USN scheint also zufrieden mit dem Konzept zu sein. Die BW hat mit der F-125 ja ähnliches vor.
