Diesels are great if you’re fighting in your home waters. However, nearly useless if you have to cross half the world to get at your enemies like we do. Thats the real reason we use nukes.

Yup. The only reason a nuke ever has to surface ultimately is for food

Knowing about subs I would suspect that a nuke powered sub is much faster than a diesel/electric sub.
