Kind of hard to hide what she is in any open waters or harbors ...
I was thinking of the straights of juan de fuca travellled often by SSBN's, not that I live there, but have visited several times when I found this trying to spell the name of: http://blog.seattlepi.com/seattlepol...l-b-c-premier/

We have a bunch of SSBN based mothersubs too, there is a 2nd Yantar class being built, but it will look derpy in comparison:

Couldn't Putin choose another color to paint it besides black? More windows would be nice too.
