Like that American submarine of World War II, which has failed to capture the worship of the world like the somehow sexier German U-boats. You can point to technical points where the U-boats were superior, but only one thing matters. The American submarines could better destroy enemy ships.

That's why 250 or so American submarines outperformed 1,100 German U-boats. Saying those submarines were superior because "they could better destroy enemy ships" does not insult the reader. It conveys the essential fact.

I couldn't disagree with your statement any more.

Agreed

If you think any navy will release accurate technical specifications on new weapons that are in design or are in development your so far off the mark, it took us 15 years to resolve items such as the VA-111 Skhval and also some years to figure the Mig 25
