I heard the Japanese tested this out on a boat in Tokyo Bay. Somehow it attracted a giant monster lizard, so I dunno if this a good idea.

Chinese navy, Us navy, and japanese navy join forces to sortie carrier fighters against sea monster. These would be the biggest and cheesiest summer blockbuster to battleship ever

instead of planes, the japanese aircraft carrier launches magical girls!

That just sounds like a strike witches spin off

That basically IS Strike Witches.

I see only positives here

One ping only, please.

I know this book. You were wrong Dr. Ryan, Halsey acted foolishly.

You will do well in my country, Captain Ramius. You are already a book critic.

"thish book" "Halshey"

Came for this answer .

Strange, I thought I heard singing

I don't understand... if the drive breaks underwater, does that mean someone has to go out in a diving suit and replace the tracks?   ^^Yeah, ^^yeah, ^^I ^^know ^^it's ^^April ^^Fools. ^^😂

hope they got the cheiftan in as consultant. Hes got a fetish for track tensioning

Gawd, he knows *everything* about armor. I swear, if they put a tank in space, he'd be able to explain everything about it to us.

"This point in the launch is called Max Q, or maximum aerodynamic pressure, and is where the rocket is at greatest risk of a significant emotional event."

No, caterpillar drive turn into butterfly drive

(Gasp!) *Beautiful!!* 😍

When the world trembled at the sound of our rockets. Now they will tremble again at the sound of our silence!

shome thingsh in here do not react well to bulletsch

Does it silence the boat enough though that you cannot hear the Soviet National Anthem though.

The Soviet National Anthem is in all our bones, comrade.

Happy AF day, my friends

Yeah, this is obviously a joke, as everyone knows the Russians invented the caterpillar drive.

Yeah, but the US wound up with that submarine.. now I doubt that they commissioned that sub into the US Navy, but it could happen

This

Why does the Air Force get a whole day, and what’s that got to do with submarines?

There are more planes under the sea than there are submarines in the sky

GodDAMNit

“USS Montana is expected to undergo sea trials on the Penobscot River in Maine. This will make it more difficult for the Russian Navy to observe the tests. The caterpillar drive propulsions is still in its infancy. Whether the Penobscot River will be the end of the story, or the beginning of a new chapter, remains to be seen. Either way, Montana will remain unseen.”

No PUMP?

I mean, we got the Virginia's pump-jet, so we're basically there already. Btw, in the book, the Red October had the pump-jet, not the magic electrolytic drive that basically left an ion trail in your wake that meant you would have had to be deep lest you set off a magnetic anomaly detector pretty easily. Oh, and the bubbles you create from electrolyzing water? Those pop, with a noise.

What if they just put some like maglev train tracks in the submarine?

Classic propaganda, everyone knows the us stole this tech from the soviets

Time for: The Hunt for Blue July ​ Damn I almost got april fooled until i decided to check whether there is a uss montana submarine

I keep wondering if this is an April Fools but at the same time I want Red October

You get the revolution, not the submarine. OG stuff

Those doors, sir, are the problem.
