What is that thing on the tail end of this submarine? that thing will DRAG in the water if it stays in the shape and position. Don't they know about tail drag in water? Surely that thing is temporary or can change position to prevent it from dragging in the water. Someone fill me in on what that vertical structure on the end of the sub is for.
