Seeing the picture before the title, I was wondering why I'd never heard of this monster of a submarine class.

But now that I know the truth, I'm left theorizing:

  • Take an obsolete battleship and remove all guns and superstructure
  • Flip it
  • Rebalance it so it stays that way
  • Improve the hull to better withstand pressure (presumably by adding flex tape)
  • Attach submariny parts

Free submarine hull!

I gotta post this to NonCredibleDefense, I think I'm on to something here.

Brilliant and completely noncredible, I wish you luck

LOTS of flex tape, like a boat load

Take the botton halves of two ships and superglue them like a clamshell.

NCD will be in touch with the paperwork.
