Clancy has also got alot wrong about the russian submarines, for a start he quotes that the russian al'fa class can dive to 900 meters when i know for full fact they can only achieve 750meters.

Whats more in an interview about the russian oscar II class submarine notibly the kursk he said the submarine is designed to sink carriers and thats it.

Oscar II submarines are tasked to hunt and kill battle groups not just the carrier as the escorts themselves pose a great threat to a point where the threat is even more greater than the carrier, becuse of aegis the russians would target them ships first ie the ticonderogas and burke DDG.

They would then hurry back to base and let the much oldr charlie class try to keep the rest of the fleet amused while they reloaded and returned to finnish them off.

The Oscar II design is not one that should be taken likely it has 24 nuclear capible missiles it can anilate any vessel afloat, but the thing is if america was to invade you wouldnt just meet one oscar SSGN you would probably meet 3 or 4 of them coupled with a charlie II two victor III's and two or three Akula's nd possibly if close enough two or three kilos as well.
