The answer to this question is a bit complicated. The United States does not have any submarines stationed in the Black Sea, but we do have some submarines that operate in the area. These submarines are part of the United States Sixth Fleet and they are based in the Mediterranean Sea. They are capable of operating in the Black Sea, but they do not have a permanent presence there.<\/p>\n

I cannot say for certain if there are American submarines in the Black Sea at this time.<\/p>\n

Are any US ships in the Black Sea? <\/h2>\n

The closure of the Bosphorus Strait is a major event for maritime traffic in the Black Sea. Only warships with ports on the Black Sea, which includes Russia’s Black Sea Fleet and Turkish ships, can enter the strait. The last American warship to transit the strait was USS Arleigh Burke (DDG-51), which left the Black Sea on Dec 15, 2021.<\/p>\n

The Kilo Class submarine is a Russian submarine that is very potent in the Black Sea. They are much more survivable in open water than their warship cousins. This makes them a very valuable asset to the Russian navy.<\/p>\n

How many submarines are in the Black Sea <\/h3>\n
