Well, you can find out a bit more information by visiting some of the links in the following page: http://www.ussnewhampshire.org/
Unfortunately for everyone curious about details, you probably are not going to find much out about the technology that the Navy doesn't want to release. Have served in the Submarine Service, I have first hand experience that they don't call it "The Silent Service" for nothing. The Virginia Class, Seawolf submarines are amazing pieces of technology. We learned about them in the last school that I attended in the Navy and have to say that they are quite unmatched. Some day that may release more information, but whatever we find probably won't be to the detail level we would all like. Sorry to be the buzz kill. Of course I would love it if I were proved wrong on that, but am not holding my breath.
