^lol

Back on topic: Depends on the time ..

WW1: Several german boats, i like the petroleum variety .. also the pre-ww1 french Gymnote (1888, NOT the later one lol) gets my vote.

WW2: VIIB and IXB, but also the US sugarboats from S1 on - i always liked this small deck on a spindle hull

Cold war: Alfa. Maybe also the Sierrra ones. And the first US streamlined Albacore!

Now: Akula

Only design and form, of course ..

Loving all the variety here. And all good choices. I don't know, personal preference but the boxy square sails on the American subs just ruin it for me. Like someone put it there as an afterthought.

From ww2 I'd have to say the IX type u-boat, the rugged looking conning tower and the slight rake to the prow just looks nice. It's a classic look
