I suggest you take a break from the forums. As you may notice, im not american or russian and I dont care who has the 'Better' of this that or the other. I'm here because I like subs and the SH4 game.
P.S can a moderator please lock this thread before demon has an anuerism

Oh come on.

elitehunter is of no consequence to me. That is laughable. I'm just asking for you to back up your claims that nobody has done any ASAT tests, or that Russia can outdive American boats. I simply ask you to provide evidence of that.
But here:

and here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-satellite_weapon
these are just starters. There is much much more for you.
And I ask for you to provide info of sub diving depth. You make a claim, I just ask where you're get the info from. Don't be so defensive. I have never seen anything that dilineates Russia's current subs diving depths greater than American subs depth. In the 80's the russians had the titanium hulls. and yes, their diving depths were known to be deep. But it's not the same anymore. Russia's not building subs from that material anymore. Do you have something that is definite? I'm just interested. You do know the Seawolf's are constructed from HY-100 steel.

As a side note, many of the workers who built the Russian sub, were so poor, that they took their families to the dockyard to feed them, as food was supplied there.
I heard on the doco, (The russian one, sorry they might be lying?) that at 450m, the pressure is like balancing an elephant on a dinner plate.

That's interesting. I didn't know that. I like that elephant to plate analogy.
