Thank you. There are "tones" of ships but where are the submarine models?

The airplanes are in the Air folder, ships are in the Sea folder, and submarines are in the Submarine folder.

For example I clicked salmon, but it doesn't show much.

Just like pointed out to you above by JapLance, you need to click on that ">* 5: Node NSS_Salmon" to select it, then click on the blue text "Model Preview", which is a link to the 3D image. You could then select the "4: Node..." that should be below the "5: Node...", and find the "Export 3D model" link for use in a 3D program. You may or may not have to select more nodes to export different "parts" of the 3D model...

Now, for most of the submarines, you will find the sail, or conning tower, or turm (pick your term... sorry, bad joke won't happen again

until the next time) - but you'll find all of those in the Objects folder. Also, be sure and browse through the "Library" folder for guns and other paraphernalia used in the game...

Thank you.

You are welcome. Notice those little yellow and blue dots. Those are mount points for "equipment", such as the term, or the deck gun, or a water spray, etc. Most of those will have corresponding links in other files, such as a deck gun mount node on the submarine deck, that node's ID will be used as the link in the Library USSubParts Deck_Gun_Xx file (the "Xx" being the actual gun desired). There are sim files for the sub which controls the gun mount (using the ID for linking), and another for the gun itself that further controls the gun. Then there's the ammunition used in the gun... There is also an eqp file in the sub folder, and that has the "name" used in the Deck_Gun_Xx file to name the gun and the dates that it is valid... It's worse than a spider web. More like a maze of spider webs...
