The Famous Peopleitan Submarines, which single handedly destryoed the Omanistan navy, is avalable for purchase. Here is a little about them.

Height: 20m
Width: 450m
Depth: 20m

Weight 32,000 tons

The subs have a 1.5 times larger trim tanks, making it able to drop to the bottom of the atlantic ocean, and 1.5 times larger air tanks, meaning it can stay there for longer. It has a hardend titanium shell, meaning it can also cope with the pressure. It uses an Elecetrosis life support, making it's lofe support very reliable, and the roof is lined with scrubbers to remove poisons in the air. It also comes equipped with filiters that remove poisons not found in the air natrually, such as cigartte smoke. It's nuclear engine powers the heating and cooling, as well as the water distallation, so fresh water is always a surplus. It uses sophisticated radar and GPS to navagate, and is, of course, SONAR equipped. On top it has cappsule that containes a Ballistic Missile (Not included), however this can only be fired while surfaced. It also containes various scramblers so that only sophisticated radars can detect it.

Cost: 10,000,000 USD

We shall buy one for testing. I hope the cooperation between these 2 countries (us giving you our NAMAS, you giving us your submarines) can continue, especially now that the Brothers In Arms treaty has been signed by me

It's coming your way, and yes I consider you an ally.

Good Afternoon

I Am Adrimal Ahera of the Republic of Essocse Navy.

We are intrested in your Sub's, We Currently have Vast numbers of Los Anagles Class Sub's but we are looking for some other models.

we would like to buy 5 of your subs and if we are happy with them and they fit in with the navys plans we would buy more

Thank you

They are on your way, that will be 50,000,000 USD

Why / how is it 450m wide, and why does it only weigh 1 tonne?

I Think I got the heights/widths mixed up. From the fins to the front is the width, from the bottom to the top is the height, and from on side to the other is depth. If that dosen't clear things up just say. And it wats 1 ton, imperial, not metric.

1 imperial ton = 1 016.04691 kilograms

That's about the weight of a medium-sized car.

OOC: hmmm... ok I'll make it 10 tons.

OOC: Try 30,000 - 40,000 tons. That'll be fairly realistic.

IC: When you have corrected your stats, we'd be interested in buying a single submarine for testing purposes.

Your order has been recived and it is currently being shipped.

Thank you. Money will be wired immediately upon arrival.

The free lands of Magikadom wish to purchase 4 of these subs from you, you will recieve the money for them 1 at a time after the delivery of the first sub.

Your order has been approved they are on their way.

Bump

I will take one so that we can reproduce it and make more
10,000,000$ usd will be wired to your account upon confirmation

minister of defence

We were verry happy with the test, during Excersice (i probably spelled it wrong) Sea Power your submarine "sunk" one of our aircraft carriers along with 3 frigates and 2 destroyers. I am purchasing 5 more

Both your orders have been aproved. They are on their way.

We'd be interested in 10.

Sending 100,000,000 USD

Approved, they're on there way.

Subs can't use RADAR or GPS unless they're surfaced, so they aren't that great for sub navigation or sensors...

And subs can only be detected by RADAR if they're surfaced...

So in other words, it's not degaussed of equipped with silencing devices, making it a huge target for any and every anti-shipping cruise missile, torpedo, and magnetic mine on the planet? Good luck with survivability there.

And how can it move through the water when it has a 9.000 meter forward face? The water resistance, even with sloping, would be so high that the ship would be little more than a stationary target, particularly when submerged. I mean come on, this thing is wider than the Nimitz is long.

Oh, and a titanium hull won't give you the ability to withstand the pressure at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean. The Russian Sierra II Class SSN, using high strength Titanium alloys for its hull, reached a crush depth at under 1.000 meters (3.000 feet according to FAS). The American DSRV - designed to operate at extreme depths - never made it below 1.525 meters. Comparatively, the Atlantic is at average, over 3.600 meters deep, reaching its lowest point in the Puerto Rico Trench at 8.605 meters. It is not practical, or cost-effective to produce a submarine capable of diving to those depths unless it is for research use. Plus, if a ship makes it to that depth, I would imagine Sonar would be useless as you aren't firing through one thermal layer but three or four, and torpedoes would likewise be unable to launch effectively up to the surface without major redesign.

Also, you do understand that the use for air tanks isn't so much to extend the time a submarine can operate underwater as it is to force water out of the trim tanks and bring the ship to the surface. 150% capacity for your air tanks (150% of what?) won't give you much advantage in diving time unless you jerry-rig a system to pump air into the ship. Plus, it will increase buoyancy and force you to compensate with a larger trim tank, decreasing your maximum depth.

Basically, what I'm saying is this whole submarine you have going here is just a bunch of number wanking and unsubstantiated claims. Don't expect much in terms of positive input back. I don't expect you to respond to this post favorably either.

OOC: Jesus it's just a bit of fun, I'm not actually going to build it in real life.

Perhaps Peopletopia would be interested in the design of a Sea to land Tank Carrying Sub???

OOC: So what? Most people on NS don't want to RP with unrealistic weapons... You're lucky more people haven't yelled at you, it can get a lot worse than this.

(or at least it has for me)
