PACIFIC OCEAN (February 2020) Blue crew members aboard the Ohio-class, ballistic missile submarine USS Maine (SSBN 741) prepare the submarine to dive during Demonstration and Shakedown Operation 30. Demonstration and Shakedown Operations give the U.S. Navy an opportunity to conduct scheduled missile test flights of unarmed, life-extended Trident II (D5LE) missiles to evaluate and demonstrate the readiness of an SSBN's strategic weapon system and crew before operational deployment, following a submarine's engineered refueling overhaul.
