What submarines? Most of the ex-Soviet Union's subs are rusting away at
their docks. The submarines from other countries are diesel and noisy and
therefore not all that much of a threat.


A diesel sub on battery power is much quieter than a nuclear sub. They
are and always have been a challenging threat.
