>One of these plus one of the new nuclear subs outfitted as a seal covert operating platform would be a threat to be reckoned with..

Always thought it would be a great idea to take a Trident boat taken out of service due to SALTs, remove tubes, put in hot bunks for a USMC battalion with some more air generation, some messing areas. You could move them ashore with inflatable rubber boats. A battalion of US Marines arriving unexpectedly in your harbor is a defense planing nightmare.
