Your fictional sub/ship/aircraft discussion

[SS-0 Sub-Zero]

Ok, how about starting a thread where you can spill all your idea on a new technology such as your own creation of a ship, submarine, or an aircraft. But everything that you're going to write is have to be logic. fictional, but logic.
I have one, it is an Submarine Aircraft carrier. It is based on an Ohio class sub, but the SLBM is replaced by an UAV, each carrying 2 missile, able to fold, so the sub can carry 20+ UAV. The UAV is launched just like a ballistic missile, but in mid air, the outer casing collapse, then the UAVs fly with its own power. To Retrieve the UAVs, the submarine has to surface, and pick it up with a retractable crane. Now, anyone have some idea like that too?

I've been working on an idea (more like breewing it in my mind), of bringing back the clippers (ship, not nail clippers). Rising prices of oil, a small sail powered freighter for coastal areas with lots of islands to supply, like the Adriatic or Greece. And new materials and technology would make it lighter and more efficient

i have one, well, it's an aircraft carrier submarine too, but my version is going to be larger, Nuclear Powered, have a lenght of at least 300 meters, it carries F-35 or F-18, the sail/bridge is placed on its starboard side. The submarine have a ski-jump ramp and an optional catapult for launching aircraft. To accommodate a large number of aircraft, the submarine's hull design is very wide. The tail configuration use the X-tail config. The sub use 2 pump-jet for its propulsion, due to its large size(maybe more). For its self defense, the sub have two CIWS, one before and one after the sail/bridge. It have at least 12 VLS and 6 torpedo tube. yes, it is a bit impossible to build, but it would be cool if it really being built

UTV: Unmanned Tank Vehicle!!! Smaller, lighter, faster and deadlier than ever with no risk to her operator.


Guided (smart) grenade launcher munition.

Guided RPG.

Guided(smart) anti tank infantry carried mortar munition able to track and hit fast moving, changing direction enemy tanks

Guided and sensor homing anti personnel artillery munition able to target human heat signatures to explode its cluster payload for maximum effect

Guided and sensor homing anti tank artillery munition, one shell for one tank, moving or stationary.


Orbital/outer space/ moon based military spaceship station with strategic nuclear bomber specially propelled(fast) spaceship docked. It would make little sense to build but it would be cool

I would make Mech's like in Mechwarrior! or Powered Armour like in Starship Troopers (book not the movie)

I have another one, how about an Unmanned Submersible Aircraft Vehicle, the main idea is to built an UAV but is submersible, so after launching it via my carrier sub(not Subzero one, since this UAV's going to be large) and done it's recon mission, the UAV land slowly on water, then submerge itself. Undersea, the UAV land in the carrier sub's deck so the sub doesn't need to surface itself.
