That is way too spacious to be a submarine, even a boomer.

@MrRooibos123 2 жыл бұрын

With all the advanced sonar on the boat, they'd have seen the tanker literally miles away. One guy not hearing sufficiently well would not lead to such a situation.

Of course! Alarms would have gone off left, right and centre.

You need to watch the whole series to understand the dynamics.

I'm reminded of a _Get Smart_ episode in which 86 and 99 are captured and taken on a KAOS submarine. Siegfried the KAOS boss is at the periscope, doing a full sweep. "Nothing... nothing... nothing... six destroyers... SIX DESTROYERS?!"

This was a remarkably good series. I myself am an American Army veteran, but I live in an area with a large submarine veteran community. All the 'bubbleheads' I talked to about this show were deeply impressed. [don't worry about the 'bubblehead' comment. I'm well aware that, to bubbleheads, I'm a 'non-qual treadhead' 🤣] BTW, they also told me that an incident like this would leave a VERY black mark in a CO's book.... and they wouldn't give two figs for the sonarman's promotion prospects either.

Why don't just turn left or right instead?

@dritzzdarkwood4727 16 сағат бұрын

A sub can dive faster than it can turn.

Was the sub in a hot tub with all the jets going? There’s just no way it wouldn’t hear that tanker

There was a time when a Russian submarine almost surfaced right under the carrier USS America and then was the time the USS Greenville destroyed a Japanese fishing vessel when it surfaced. And the time the USS Connecticut hit an underground mountain and before that it hit a pier. Someone wasn't pay attention.

Or why not just turn to the left or right????? Or turn to the left or right while diving? but like other's said before me, how did they not hear the tanker from miles away?

worst sub scene ever filmed??

@StevenMRA 5 күн бұрын

Ok - this was POORLY written: 1) The draft of even the LARGEST tankers is less than 30 meters - most are 20-28 meters. The submarine does not need to do some crazy crash dive maneuver to drop 30 meters. They could drop 40 meters, maybe 50 and be clear. Now - in fairness the TURBULENCE of the props of a supertanker would not be fun ..... 2) Modern submarines have SONAR - very very sensitive passive sonar that can not only tell that "something is there" but, by acoustic signature can tell a whale from a trawler to a naval vessel to a tanker. Look - I love a good sub drama, but did ANYONE consult someone who knows about subs?

There was a time when a Russian submarine almost surfaced right under the carrier USS America and then was the time the USS Greenville destroyed a Japanese fishing vessel when it surfaced. And the time the USS Connecticut hit an underground mountain and, a year before that, it hit a pier. One would think that it isn't possible, but there have been many instances when it has happened.

@@gbonkers666 I'd need to hear the details on those stories - but 1) Greenville - if that vessel was sitting w/out the engine running .... 2) Connecticut - both of those are hitting SILENT object. None of that addresses the depth issue.
