Awesome! Many Thanks Shad43 :up:

Very cool. I was only saying to my Brother yesterday how as a child Helicopters and Fighter planes were cool and Ships and Subs were so dull. Moving into middle age though and all of a sudden ones appreciation for the hell that submariners must have gone through puts everything into perspective.

These drawings just serve to bring home how cramped the conditions must have been in these old diesel subs. Rather them than me thanks.

Thanks for the links. Great drawings.

Those of you who have not seen those before might want to reference the whole list, so you can look at ALL the drawings:

Nice site:up:

Indeed, thanks for sharing Steve.

Don't thank me; shad43 brought it up this time. I've noted before that about once every two weeks someone posts a new link to the site http://www.maritime.org/fleetsub/index.htm

Great link! Thanks Sailor Steve and Shad43 :arrgh!:

I wonder how many hits they get from subsim.com? :up:

Must be a lot since the page won't load for me :lol:

Anyone know where I might find a higher resolution copy of the FIGA-01 Compartmentation Cutaway? I think I've googled just about every combination of words including fleet, sub, cutaway, blueprint, compartment... Nothing...

Im sure there is a higher resolution image, in fact I hope that it comes with the PDF, as I ordered the NavPers 16160 CD from them...

Cheers.
