Standing next to a submarine like this, you realize... that’s not just size, it’s skill. Thousands of critical components, assembled by specialists who transform engineering concepts into reality.

This machine’s impressive, but the real skill comes from the person who runs it. CNC machinists turn raw material into the precision parts submarines depend on.

High heat. Higher stakes. When you’re a welder building submarines, your watertight welds are what keep people safe.

It takes thousands of skilled hands to build what only a few will ever see. Every submarine is a product of precision engineering, relentless testing and skilled craftsmanship.

Despite the small community’s name, not everyone from the Richmond suburb of Mechanicsville, Virginia ends up on a skilled trades path. But Kenneth Clodfelter did, and his life, service and skills...
We will always honor and remember. 🇺🇸 Our team is proud to have worked with @BuildSubmarines to host the family of HT2 Kenneth Clodfelter - a sailor who gave the ultimate sacrifice while serving his country.

Additive Manufacturing unlocks a whole new way to think about building submarines. And we’re not talking about 3D-printed trinkets for your desk—these parts are made to survive deep below the ocean’s surface.

This glowing vial is actually a diagnostic tool. Non-Destructive Testing specialists use black lights and magnetic particle inspection liquid to reveal microscopic flaws you’d never catch with the naked eye.
