Future Submarine concepts and technologies from mind controlled, ultrafast, laser communications to launching UUVs and UAVs.
Germans were first to demonstrate the revolutionary capability of submarines in World War I, by both sinking enemy combatants and interdicting commerce. Modern Submarines have become one of the deadliest weapons which are hardest to detect. They are literally a pile of submerged nuclear weapons ready to unleash widespread destruction …
