What is the extra, circular do-dad on the rear deck of the Delta. I see a hatch and a rescue buoy but what is the other one?
Delta III question.

Hi Scott, we left you hanging here (sorry mate, still catching up here)
The fwd one is the rescue chamber (on the AKULA it's in the sail, pop-up version)
The middle one is the rear hatch
The aft one is the emergency buoy
Grtz,

Rescue chamber DELTA III type
And the popup version (AKULA, SIERRA (picture), ......

Pictures are an example of DELTA III type escapes.....they are not all DELTA III subs. As far as I can see this picture is a DELTA IV as is the first picture, the second one is a DELtA III
Your initial picture is one of these:
K-211
K-223
K-424
K-443
K-490
Your picture of the one with the 7blade props (its the one and only) showing in your ZULU built is the K-44, her tail looks like this.
Yes I know....I need to get a life……..this is getting ridiculous …….I start recognizing built numbers of subs by looking at the details in pictures.......I need to go and see Dr Phil.
Grtz,
Bart

You’re not helping mate LOL.......these are the pictures I'm sure of........did you noticed the extra fixed flow directors/stabilizers planes on your lovely K-44 (behind the scoops and in front of the tail stuff)?...... in the last two pictures below you will see them better one directing the flow up one directing the flow down.

Extra fixed flow directors/stabilizer cleary visible here
