[PSUBS-MAILIST] Sub (ish) story

It was not meant negative. Their design approach is not conventional but okay. The even calculated the sub with CFD.

 

Just be careful with the “up” lever as it travel 11 Kts..

I'm not sure that if someone referred to me as "mentally okay", I would consider that a glowing endorsement.

These are ambient pressure vehicles, and there is merit in achieving fast descent rates - particularly on deep / mixed gas dives, as a 310 fsw dive would be, as it minimizes the contribution of the descent to the overall decompression obligation. That said, "seconds" sounds ridiculously fast for 300 feet, but on those sorts of dives I don't lolligag about with 60 fpm rates either.

The design is not bad. It is based on the WW2  “sleeping beauty” I know the designers personally and they are mentally okay.

 

But the textwriter of the article…” The safest submarine ever “ and “in seconds to 310 ft.” do not match together.
