SSBN. ETV. Will not respond to questions about sensitive or classified subjects. My views are my own and I do not represent anyone.

Hi there!

Edit: since this has been asked several times:

SSBN stands for “submersible ship, ballistic missile, nuclear powered”. That is, the same overall type of ship as the Red October.

ETV stands for “Electronics Technican, Navigation”, because N was already taken by Nuclear Electronics Technicians. I work with everything from interior communications and announcing circuits to Electronics, shipwide atmospheric monitoring, navigational inertial gyroscopes, strategic nuclear missile navigation, and tank level indicators to basic underwater submarine navigation using the voyage management system and even helming the ship itself.

    Posted this in a different answer, but SSBN is submersible ship, ballistic missile, nuclear powered. Aka, “boomer” in bubblehead parlance. ETV is electronics technician, Navigation (nuclear ETs took ETN already).

    Honestly the big thing is, and I do not condone the downloading of copyrighted content of course, movies and TV shows… and h-games. Let’s just leave it at that.

      Oh I didn’t see, you can edit your original post to say it.

      Wel lots of shows out there. Ok, I don’t know what h-games are either. I’ve heard military likes acronyms but I have no idea.
