I'm not gonna 'nit pick' on your writing skills

But please allow me to advise you of some details in response to your statements around comparability of the Typhoon and Battleships.

Battleships come in a variety of shapes and sizes and seeing as how you have chosen a modern submarine I have chosen one of the latest WWII era vessels which also happens to still be around today.

Length...............Typhoon 175 metres........................................ Iowa 271 metres
Beam.................Typhoon 23 metres......................................... Iowa 33 metres
Displacement.......Typhoon (submerged) 48,000 tonnes.....Iowa (fully loaded) 58,000 tonnes
