S1C reactor The S1C reactor was a prototype naval reactor designed for the United States Navy to provide electricity generation and propulsion on warship s .

The propulsion plant was unusual in that the steam turbines powered an electric motor , rather than a set of reduction gears . The USS " Tullibee " was an early advanced - design , fast - attack submarine constructed by Electric Boat and commissioned in 1960 . Throughout the Cold War , the S1C Prototype nuclear submarine propulsion plant at the Windsor Site ( 41°52 ' 45 . 08 " N 72°43 ' 02 . 55 " W ) supported the submarines and surface ships of the Navy ’ s nuclear fleet by testing new equipment and training Naval propulsion plant operators . S1C was the prototype for the USS " Tullibee " . The S1C Prototype was operated at the Windsor Site from 1959 until 1993 . During that time , over 14 , 000 Naval operators were trained there , including Admiral Kirkland H . Donald early in his career . Full clean up of the S1C site was recently declared to be complete by the Connecticut Department of Environmental Protection in 2006 . Remediation of the site was undertaken by Knolls Atomic Power Laboratory ( KAPL ) , based out of Schenectady , New York . KAPL had taken over operation of the S1C site in the 1960s after expiration of the Navy ' s original contract with C - E . The reactor was situated on land and known as the S1C Nuclear Power Training Unit ( NPTU ) . Except for its size and electric drive , the system layout was very similar to the S5W reactor used in most nuclear - powered submarines at the time .
