Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] diesel electric propulsion module

["Jens Laland" <laland@artematrix.org>]

Guys...

My idea of a diesel/electric propulsion module is not meant to be an
optional auxiliary unit that could be added to the rest of the submarine
when needed for a more convenient surface cruising.

On the other hand, my idea with this is that the diesel/electric
propulsion module complete with the entire keel/battery module (read: huge
drop keel, somewhat similar to Alvin's emergency separation) could be
released from the cockpit module, that is, as a last resort in an extreme
emergency situation.

Best regards,
Jens Laland
