Dear gentlemen,

I have a serious request for you.

Does any one of you have a blueprint of the Churchill class nuclear submarines for me?

Ex bubblehead here....Beginning with SSN-21 US subs have added a 'wedge' at the base of the sail. Obviously the wedge was added to enhance the hydrodynamics of the boat, but I can't find what it really 'does'...anyone know?

The hydrophonists in both submarines must have been top men.

We all know that Nickel-Zinc batteries have been around for some time, over 100 years in fact, and that some experiments (see wiki) were even done in the 1930s on their use. The problem, says wiki, was they they had a limited number of discharge cycles.
