Hmmmm, buy one of these, put some torpedo tubes in those subs that mc Beck (I think it was him) and the people who built it with him made. We would have a subsim navy.:p

Given that you could in fact buy torpedoes and missiles for these things, why exactly are war subs legal for ownership? I watched a History Channel program about this drug dealer in Florida (sponsored coke and heroine) who asked the Russians for a private submarine, and the fool says to him "You want this with or without missiles?"

He got a CREW (a TRAINED crew) to bring the sub to the United States, and they stayed to manage the boat until he (the dealer) was busted for possession of illegal substances.

I wonder what the cruise liners would think as we eye them for tonnage? I will be in only if they throw in the first load of warshots for free!
