Subman, I said deepest diving in the US fleet

And I garentee you that the Seawolf goes ATLEAST 40+ knots. Does the Al'fa have a 20 knot tactical speed, too?

Yes the 212 is good, but its like a kilo:

Uses bateries (you can call them that, i know they are hydrogen motors, like the cars)
problably not very deep diving
slow
not under-ice capeable
short range (dosent even break 10,000 miles, i think)

212 is the modern kilo: good for littorials but poor choice for extended open ocean ops.
