I can't really argue against the technical merits here. But there is tremendous irony in making the case that the US submarine fleet ought to be more like the Russian submarine fleet.

If you know what I'm sayin'

That would be my thought, too.

We probably don’t build them double hulled because we don’t HAVE to build them double hulled.

But there is tremendous irony in making the case that the US submarine fleet ought to be more like its Russian counterpart.

You mean having both nuke and D-E subs or plainly double-hulled ones?

Not one U.S. built sub is double-hulled.

If the Russians could build Typhoons, certainly they could build more mammoth-sized ones as well.
