Good point. If any part of a vessel never fully submerges, can it be termed a submarine?

Iâm sure it will be a submarine* *maximum operational depth 2 meters from surface to cabin, and must have itâs conning tower, bridge, and snorkel completely exposed at all time

Not really, but it will be good enough to get some affluenza fuck to drop $2bil on it
according to their official page they do have it specced out for 4 weeks of fully submerged operation with a max depth of 250 meters. However, literally none of this is real as itâs just a concept model without real engineering or a prototype built, so the chances of it meeting such specs are whatever the fuck you feel like they are.

For non military or explorative purposes there is absolutely no reason to go that deep. The âsubmarine experienceâ at 50m is the same as at 250m. And it smells terribly, because recycling sweaty air only goes that far.

Calmly explaining this to my crewmates on the Titan

It can be submerged but it canât cruise on batteries for 4 weeks. Itâll have to put itâs snorkel up.

Perfect. Now I can ignore the article.

Or, seeing as itâs billionaire bullshit, it will be an ecological disaster. What do you want to offer for the odds that it will have shit navigation, and throws out pings every 3 seconds if submerged? Goodbye local wildlife, recreational diving, and all other activities taking place underwater.
