I do, but with a twist!

It's from the book Stephen Biesty's Incredible Cross-Sections, a really cool children's book from the early 90s. It's not 100% accurate, but it's fun to explore nonetheless. The book also has illustrations of a Spanish galleon, modern fishing trawler, and the Queen Mary, and 14 other things that can't float. :p

Having seen the back end of an Astute I can assure you that it does not look like that!

And of that u-boat pic is the detail of the guy on the toillet! Another one priceless...:lol:

Definitely not, that's a caricature at best! It has a ducted prop, right?

And on a vaguely related note, a view of the battleship Dreadnought's third boiler room from the Anatomy of the Ship book on the ship.
