What are those pipes at the top? Was this thing able to fully submerge?

Thanks for the alert, kinda makes me nervous, glad I don’t live on the coast.

Ever heard of people smuggling corn syrup or flour across borders? How about on a sub? Ever heard of someone stealing and killing over these products?

We need to build an underwater fence, and a giant bubble dome that covers our entire country.

This isn’t the first time a sub has been found. The WOD is starting to take on unusual permutations.

I may be way off, but I think those may be some sort of muffler system to keep the sub quiet when it’s on top of the water.

I so much as a kid wanted one of these Polaris Nuclear Submarine sold in comic books... According to the ad it fires rockets and torpedoes, it is over 7 feet long, and it is big enough to take two kids on an underwater adventure they won’t soon forget.
