What does TUUM stand for?

This is the french underwater digital telephone system ( built by thales)

What exactly are "magic points"

there are just underwater navigation point, when you navigate underwater you use inertial navigation, the longer you stay below the bigger the innacurracy is, and when you launch a SLBM you need to know where you are exactly, to give you the smallest CEP on impact




What is CIRA

centre d'interprétation et de reconnaissance acoustique (CIRA)
thats where we store all accoustic signatures of all the ships, pretty secured place....

Also -

Could an underwater swimmer survive that deep without being crushed by the weight of the water.
No clue never tried :-)



The Film itself is pretty good, a few ridiculous scene ( RPG against an helicopter...) but overall good acting and good scenario

not as good as red october , but way better than hunter killer :-)
