So Germany's selling subs to Egypt and the U.S is paying for them ???

The USA use to pay Egypt 2 Billion US dollars a year to leave Israel alone, but that deal is probably long gone by now.

The world navies have so many subs in and under the oceans that you will need an F-22 multi tasking CIC submarine to track them all.

I sugest a diesel boat that can be replaced every two weeks by another diesel boat kept maintained by a nuclear surface ship sub tender, but that would take an act of congress which is little busy right now passing a budget that has not been met in years ...

in fact I don't even think there has been a budget in years.
