Default Torbay's paint job.

This one's been discussed before but I saw this in one of the Plymouth papers recently and thought it was worth sharing.

Apologies if it's been shown before, I couldn't find it in a quick search.

Wow seems to work. If the Periscope isn't up and the P-3 or whatever was a thousand or so feet up it might just work.

Funny how the arcticle references the Persian/Arabian Gulf. Recently, and with much fanfare, Iran announced their own submarine fleet operating in the Gulf litoral waters.

Perhaps green/blue lasers have come further than we realize. In shallow waters a blue paint jab could be the ticket.
