#BEST SUBMARINE MOVIES MOVIE#
And you remember at the end of the movie as the ship was sinking, the Titanic was rising up, and that's because the water was cascading from compartment to compartment to compartment. And if you saw the movie "Titanic," that's how that ship sank. You can't use the air to blow the water out, because the air will just go out the side. And when you're like this, your ballast tanks don't work anymore. And so what happens is now the sub, you end up like this. That part of the submarine starts to get heavier, and then the submarine starts to tip down like this, which means that the water in the submarine rushes more towards the front, and it makes it even heavier and tips down even more. Let's say there's water in the front part of the submarine. At deep depth, the water comes in very, very quickly, and you don't need to flood the entire submarine. I'm gonna give it a seven out of 10.īarney: Mayday! Mayday! The engine room has sprung a leak!ĭavid: Now, this scene from "The Simpsons" sends shivers up my spine, because this is the worst fear of all submariners, flooding. The philosophy on a submarine is, "One crew, one fight." So with very few exceptions, the entire crew has access to the entire ship.
The reason is because if there's some sort of a casualty, we need to muster the entire crew to go find it. It's a space that every crew member on the submarine would have access to and would be knowledgeable about. It only takes one of these modern torpedoes to sink all but the very largest warships.
Submarines also can carry missiles that can attack land targets and missiles that can attack other ships, and also mines that would lie in wait for the bad guy. So, these are torpedoes, with the classic propeller on the back, and they're designed to go sink other ships or submarines. These things are designed so that it takes a very specific sequence of operations to make the actual warhead go off. You heat it up the weapon's not gonna go off. You hit it with a hammer the weapon's not gonna go off.
It takes a lot for the weapon to go off, and the thing falls and bounces the weapon's not gonna go off. And then the other thing is, what they're showing here is pretty accurate. These things are strapped down in multiple straps. Why that torpedo just fell over kind of that easy, it looked like there was a cable cut.
