Convert Subs from Sketchup (WH) into SH4

Hello,

I was just working on another locomotive for trainz in 3DS, when i suddenly had an idea. I remembered that Google Sketchup has this 'warehouse' thingy, and that they have thousands of objects. so i simply searched for 'submarine'. What i found was a very detailed model of a RU Borei class submarine, and i would like to know whether it is a.) even possible to get that thing into SH4, b.) If yes, are there any special exporters for the mesh files, c.) how are animations done (e.g. Propeller), is it in the sub's mesh or via attachement points and d.) How many polygens are the 'max' SH4 can handle?
Due to international copyright laws, those models would be NOT for release, no need to fear that. ONLY personal use....

AND NO, THOSE ARE NOT MY MODELS....:P

regards,

EDIT: and well...i selected the wrong forum to post this -.- it should be in the SH4 mods forum...sorry :/
