On another tack, why don’t we have nuclear submarines? To me, puttering around in a diesel submarine meaning you have to come up for air every few days and then be radar-identified seems far worse than being in a nuclear machine.
But how else would you separate the submarines if you can't radar identify them?
I understand from an expert submariner that we can buy one of the proven British models for not a huge difference in the planned price of the new diesel subs.
About a billion dollars difference sound about right? Hey, I read on ebay the Eiffel Tower is for sale too.....
