Inside pics of modern subs

CptSimFreak · 03-19-08, 03:22 PM

Would anyone know a place where I can find pics inside command section (don't care about bunks / torpido room / engine) ? Or post them here..... my fiend is drawing something and need reference. I'll post his pic once its done.

what type or class of submarine are you after and from what nation and era.

CptSimFreak · 03-19-08, 05:25 PM

Any will do....and modern please.

Excuse me, were going to have to see some ID here, citizenship papers, recent photo and a DNA sample should about do it.

Just kidding ... I would like to see some modern sub interiors for a change.

ABC Good Morning America had one of their newscasters do a tour of a SSN three years ago (live) perhaps it is still available at the ABC Good Morning America web site for viewing.

They showed everything except where they keep the little ball of urainium.

Don't forget to paint everything you see with a thin yellow film from all of the cigarette smoking.

At least in the 70's ...

I hope they stopped that horrible practice, but I doubt it.

Thats pretty cool!

I never seen newer ones. Thanks.

Great pictures WosMan, thanks for the memories.

Did you see the electric hand drier in the crews head ... now that's just too much for an old sonarman like me.

We had to tell the messcooks not to slam the cooler/frezzer doors.

I can just imagine what a hand drier must sound like on sonar ...

Plus the galley is called the crew's mess, because the galley is where they actualy prepare the food for 130 men ...
smaller than most people's bathroom.

Officer's berthing is called the wardroom by the way.

Sonar looks so cool ... SSBN's had bigger and more comfortable chairs for those 6 hour watches.

The only chair you could call a real chair in my days was in the captains quarters.

That's not a submarine; that's the set of a new science-fiction movie!

I like the decor in the mess-deck: pictures of the surface world.

There's that discovery channel series "Sharks of Steel." It's pretty good.

I have some photos of a Foxtrot class, is that modern enough?:rotfl:

I really need to post those, now that I think about it:hmm:
