Subs are not made of steel.
Titanium alloy.

Finally someone with knowledge.
Yes, all US subs are steel and limited to a cruising depth of about 1500ft. Even the newest Seawolf.
WTF?

My reference was an ineffective expression of admiration for the Soviet Alpha class which was composed of Titanium alloy and had a crush depth more than twice that of any other military submarine.
