I hope it is a green submarine. The water environment can not handle anymore bad emissions. Also, is this sonar free? We have to consider the whales. J/K.
Thats not particularly SMART.

Maybe we can email them and find out what the rate of fire is on the deck gun.:p

It would appear to have 8 forward torpedoe tubes. Thats an improvement even over the Tench class.:know:

And it can dive a whole 30 feet............Wow. :D
But who knows, didn't they say the auto would never replace the horse?
So does that mean the auto will replace the submarine?...........MMmm time for me to go to bed, brains getting waterlogged.

I thought about that also and it may be but they claim the car exists ( does what it claims ) and will be on display.
A quote from link below:........
The car will be unveiled at next month's Geneva Auto Show.

Maybe someone here at subsim will see the Geneva Auto Show next month and let us know. :hmm:

No... I couldn't see myself buying one. It's all very fabulous until you drive back up on land and your hair is a mess from all the salt water. I really don't want go get out of a car when my dress is soaked. It could be a little embarassing.
Now... if they pressurized the thing, I might be able to see myself going places in it. It'd be very James Bond.
