NOW I know how those articulated bow planes work! Thanks, guys. Great stuff as usual.

Hello chaps,

Today it is the ill-fated K-278 Mike class.

Right have been trying to find evidence of the Oscar parasite program. Here is the little of what I have actually found.




This is not an unfamiliar picture but I have found a few conversations on the Russian forums which state that this the Belgorod undergoing conversion to a project 949AM hull. it is apparently in build now and is having quite a few changes made.

More as I find it. Pretty sure Mark will be able to help as am confident we stalk the same forums.

On the third picture from the bottom you can see an Akula with deployed maneuvering thrusters in the rear below the waterline, just behind the water scoop.Scuba Diving

The surface shot of a 12" torpedo: American MK-46 weapon. The launcher is a NATO look-alike of the American MK-33 above-water torpedo tubes.

All good ones too.

I so love the VICTOR. But, I am so behind in my obligations to customers it will be some time before I dig out enough to do one of these beasts. Mark and Pete: thank you so much for digging this stuff out -- the creeper motor-propeller image was fantastic!
