I hope you will all, not hold it against me, in how I put this.

And O.K, it will prove maybe, how much I really know. This over 40 guy, I am.

So keelhaul me, or fire me out a torpedo tube or worse tie me to the mast as you, Dive, Dive, your Sub under water, hee!

With all the technology, we have globally (and no Govt would want to own up and admit it, plus the likes of NASA, ESA, etc.) that we can scan the earth in different light waves, IR, Gamma, X-rays, etc, from up above the earth. (and we can monitor and map under the ocean, via surface sea vessels. Like the current MH370 plane search.)

Whose to say with what we have in the skies above, we can now, look under the ocean surface. Very deeply and possibly rather clearly.

I am aware, that Subs of today can go, a lot deeper and engine wise etc can assist with detection. However, are we now able to scan from above, like that of say: Star Trek technology. If so, then, no one can hide.

And I hope, I am wrong. As that would make Subs, very much a fish out of water. Despite, being under it.

And drones and future ways, of warfare. let's not think Terminator and Skynet. Now that would be scary.
