I think they'd need some serious lane marking around wherever they're going to come to surface (unless they somehow intend for these to surface vertically within a reception depot). I can imagine how "fun" it'd be to be in a teensy sailboat (like a sunfish) and have this thing surface under you - possibly chucking you into the sub's engine when you're thrown from the boat.
- contingencies 5y agoI have been on a small sailboat and had a submarine surface nearby. Good times!
- anonymousDan 5y agoWow, do you think they knew you were there? Must have been a shock!
- oh_sigh 5y agoProbably not, considering even advanced nuclear subs just pop up without checking if there is a 200' ship above them: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ehime_Maru_and_USS_Greeneville_collision https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ehime_Maru_and_USS_Greeneville...
- contingencies 5y agoThey knew, it was a joke. It was a military research institute in a Chinese lake at 2000m altitude in the Himalayas. The lake is very deep so useful for submarine testing.
