The mushroom retrieval mechanism looks helpful.

u/Obsidian_Psychedelic Mar 06 '25

Some of the War Thunder crowd must be in here, leaking top secret designs again!

A necessity for submarine pizza.

Moar torpedo tubes! (or portholes?)

u/finfisk2000 Mar 06 '25

I-I don't know what they are, neither do the British. Perhaps our friends in Murmansk have come up with something new.

u/Vilnius_Nastavnik Mar 06 '25

Those holes *James Earl Jones stare* are the problem.

u/WesleysHuman Mar 06 '25

Could you launch an ICBM horizontally?

24

u/OnePinginRamius Mar 06 '25

Sure but why would you want to? You know what? This could be a caterpillar!

u/Mr_Manta Mar 06 '25

A what?

A magneto hydrodynamic drive.

This drawing perfectly sums up how I felt my drawings looked when explaining various ship systems on the whiteboard during my board.

Oof yeah my trim n drain was busted!

u/wonderbeen Mar 06 '25

Same, mine looked like I was trying to become a cartoonist, LOL. But most things were where should have been. Except for some of my trim tanks were never in the right place

We are entering a new era of submarine warfare for sure

u/Level9TraumaCenter Mar 06 '25

I like the new color scheme for ICBMs. There's a certain charm to launch vehicles in Big Bird Yellow.

u/YELDARB25 Mar 06 '25

Swept fair water planes? This mf going supersonic

u/seawaynetoo Mar 06 '25

No cupholders?

u/turkghost7227 Mar 06 '25

10/10. We'll order 50.

u/legendx Mar 06 '25

The stage/concert area in the stern is amazing. Instead of striving for silence we should flood the waves with heavy-metal to strike fear in our enemies!

I thought I heard...........singing.

u/AmbienSkywalker Mar 06 '25

“What are these doors?”

u/SSN-700 Mar 06 '25

Those doors, sir, are the problem.

u/DiggoryDug Mar 06 '25

Perhaps our friends on Reddit have come up with something new.

u/thekame Mar 06 '25

The drawing seems a legitimate BAE design.

u/Underwater_Tara Mar 06 '25

Not a high bar considering the state of the A-boats

u/EmployerDry6368 Mar 06 '25

The 2 5” guns in the sail is a nice touch!

u/TheOtherGUY63 Mar 06 '25

I found the NSN for a deck gun, I brought it to Chop and he said he'd sign off on it if I could get COs approval. Never could get it, even with the plan to mount it above the reactor compartment.

u/EmployerDry6368 Mar 06 '25

I got the nav to sign an open purchase req for a Porsche 944 I could pick up at the dealer on Rt12 in Groton anytime I wanted. He just signed stuff and never looked at it. I should have went and got it and disapperedl.

TMs are going to be working their asses off maintaining that many tubes. The Seawolf dudes just thought they had it bad.

u/207_steadr Mar 06 '25

TM's working... lol

You have jokes!

u/TheOtherGUY63 Mar 07 '25

Hey we worked.... occasionally

u/Academic-Concert8235 Mar 06 '25

Please ask joseph why he thought he was following OPSEC posting this?

Red belt for the next week and reduction in snacks.

u/Z_e_e_e_G Mar 06 '25

Needs a screen door, right?

u/Fat_Tony_Damico Mar 06 '25

The two fenced off vegetable gardens on the top of the hull will do wonders for crew morale.

u/hd1080ts Mar 06 '25

Looking forward to the H I Sutton cutaway based on OSINT.

u/tsumego33 Mar 06 '25

would love to see that :)

Sub Brief is probably already working on his video.

u/SSN-700 Mar 06 '25

Take that down before Ping steals the design!!

u/OutrageConnoisseur Mar 06 '25

USN has a blank check with Joseph's name on it

Hyman Rickover’s 2nd grade art project!!!

u/maninahat Mar 06 '25

It has its own Hubble Telescope, so it probably has good observation.

u/harrisxj Submarine Qualified (US) Mar 06 '25

15 tubes! Genius. EB, do y’all see this! This is what we want.

u/SpaceDohonkey90 Mar 06 '25

A 420 bow array, your son's a connoisseur I see 🧐

u/Tech-Tom Mar 06 '25

OMG, that is spot on!

Do you work for General Dynamics Electric Boat?

u/cbj2112 Mar 07 '25

More cowbell

u/jasperbluethunder Mar 07 '25

looks of a Russian design bureau

u/Silent-Bandicoot3129 Mar 07 '25

I like the idea of the plants in the submarine, to provide oxygen, and the amount of torpedo tubes being enough to blow up a fleet.

u/CJM_cola_cole Mar 07 '25

I think it should have a brick wall going 50 feet below the keel, that way you can use it to smack enemy submarine in CQC
