I have to disagree to an extent about the "war machine" bit. This is about a toilet, not a torpedo. Every boat at sea needs a toilet; this is a basic need for supporting human life unless you want to have people relieving themselves over the deck railings (which of course isn't even possible on a submarine).
If you have to have a specialist flush a toilet for you, the design is bad.
- duxup 7y agoIt's a new toilet on a complex machine that can't just dump stuff out in the open ocean all the time. It's not "just a toilet" anymore than a sub should work like a video game.
- magduf 7y agoIt's not new: Germany had toilets on submarines for many years before this. Germany had U-boats back in WWI. Did they have toilet problems like this before? If not, then this is a bad design.
