Been doing an hoc study on this boat and the concepts discussed, planned, and executed. Look forward to a pro (Aaron) working this story!

A submarine hull's tradeoff between minimum drag and maximum hull strength is something I want to understand further. I believe strength is optimized by a long cylinder with a constant diameter throughout its length; the Albacore's diameter varies throughout its length.

Should go visit her in Portsmouth NH! Such a cool little museum

I want to go when the pandemic ends - also I want to visit the USS Blueback in Oregon.

In the video titled "USS Albacore AGSS-569 walkthrough", a veteran comments that a trim pump would automatically start if a group of men walked fore or aft. Will the trim of SSNs or SSBNs be affected much by personnel? Albacore was only 1823 tons submerged; maybe the trim of a small submarine would be more sensitive.

I know nothing about subs or any watercraft for that matter but I love hearing your knowledge on the subject and you are extremely well at explaining all the vetted information you have to where someone like me can understand at a basic level. Thank you for what you do!

The vet is accurate. Let’s use your weight numbers for a second. 3,646,000 pounds weight shows up as a number we can relate to. People could say “how can maybe 1200 pounds of people cause trim issue? Well, with buoyancy theory, this will happen in salt water. I am not a mathematician. Speaking at board room level. This weight shift of people will cause a imbalance. The sub has the planes (like elevator on a aircraft) which could be adjusted by the sub “pilots”. Like a aircraft, flying a sub in the water slightly out of trim is a hassle. Plus, the largest issue... Drag.. even minute levels added due to trim issues will cause what? Noise..

The Russians have had a way of dealing with the compromises with this for decades. Some would say they did not sweat the detail on their innovative materials (like Titanium and innovative designs). That they could have had a better “cake and eat it too” dealing with drag (equal noise potential) + their power systems had enough to overcome drag. Their designs could have been improved for less drag, still retaining massive strength for their incredible depth reach +resistance to torpedo/depth charge hits.

I visit this beauty when I was doing a dive job at the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard. It was awesome.

I visted Blueback a few years ago. I highly recommend it, the closest we can get to the feel of a modern SSN without enlisting! It was the last SS in the US Navy. They have(or had) two different tours. The first was a 45 min "quick tour". That's what I went on. That tour is very good and a prerequisite for the second tour which I sadly did not have time for. The second tour is a technical tour that is like 2 hours long and you go to every nook and cranny of the boat. And they explain all sorts of things. I need to go back and do that one too! I need to find a way to share my video, kind of crappy but some of yall might like to see it.

Aw yeah! Looking forward to this one! Murica Baby!

This is such a landmark design. Looking forward to watching the final video!
