"In such a short period of time, Doujinishi Corporations with our subsidiaries Bath Iron Works and Austal Naval Design and Shipyards, we have almost designed a full fleet of military vessels. This is something to commend! And our latest design, the Sea Horse Fast Attack submarine is one of our best yet! And, they can only get better."



Sea Horse Class (www.geocities.com/dcorpngerm/seahorse.html)
Trimaran-Hull Fast Attack Submarine

For underwater warfare we offer the submarine trimaran. There are no analogues of this vessel in the world. Maneuverability of the submarine trimaran in water can be compared with the maneuverability of an airplane in flight, and its speed and reliability considerably surpass single-hull submarines. Such trimaran will give a unique opportunity and advantage for undersea warfare.

The reason nobody is buying is because your submarine looks very weird...

A Trimaran-hulled submarine is bound to look weird :lol: however its increased maneuverbility makes it superior to its single-hulled counterparts.

Based on the pictures, the acoustics of such a design would be horrible... I don't know if increased maneuverability from the outrigger propulsor-jets would be worth the decreased stealthiness. Modern combat submarines live and die on acoustic stealth.
