The side steamer style paddle wheels make this sub 1000% quieter than a single plankton this sub keeps naval intel officers officers around the world up many nights.

Engage the Caterpillar Drive!

Yes and it was named after the Assassin Caterpillar from Brazil(it has deadly poison in its spines)

How ya doin matey?

WWII: German VIIC/41 for its deep diving depth.

Modern: Type 212 for its sophistication and Kilo for its rugged simplicity that arguably still presents an effective tactical deterrent.

I like small boats.

You think a Kilo is small? :haha:

The Kilo is one of the biggest (if not the biggest) diesel submarine in the world. :03:

She is bigger than some nucs! :D

Also: 688i, Alfa, Typhoon, Type II, Oscar II, Victor III and Trafalgar. :rock:

You know that there is an out of comission Oberon class sub in Sassnitz/East Germany (Dunkeldeutschland) as a tourist attraction? I have a "Oberon/Sassnitz" baseball cap and T-shirt.

I don't wear these because I have my subsim baseball cap and muscle shirt.

If you want the Oberon baseball cap and T-shirt, send me your postal adress via pm. Could be yours.

Sorry.. :oops:

:shifty:

But to be on topic:

I would probably say the WWII type VIIc and the more modern type 212.

A Kilo is relatively small than say US or Russian nuclear boats. But if they would make it smaller so it's more suitable to coastal area I'd like it more.

Even compared to a US SSN its still quite big. I have models at the same scale of both a 688(i) and Kilo on my desk and the Kilo is 2/3rds the size of the 688(i) and is almost the size of a Trafalgar SSN. :yep:
