/Sci/ has an undersea research base, Part 2.

[Mad Scientist !!Q11PG81nz2n No.3277986]

Continuing from the first thread, here's the progress so far. Added everything from the (now auto-saging) original thread. If I missed your addition, let me know and I'll put it in.

Premise refresher: An anonymous billionaire who posts on /sci/ has offered us as much funding as we need to expand our sea base on the continental shelf. So far we've added pot gardens, two bars (one of which is a strip club, lol) a coffee shop, a hospital, apartments, two entertainment rooms, a restaurant, a tree dome, a nuclear sub pen, a drilling rig, a subsea rocket launch platform, a geology lab, a Thorium reactor and more.

What's next, seabros? More than one laboratory, perhaps? Some defense turrets? A fightersub launch tube? A Cthulu containment facility? The sea is our oyster. Let's conquer it. :3

And that's for spacecrafts, the weight could probably be reduced as you scale it up.
The original MRSE core weighed something along 150 kg, and that was ONLY the core, without any of the associated, piping, fuel salt tanks, etc, etc, and it produced only about 10 MW thermal

A radioisotope battery, will, at any given size and any given weight always vastly outperform any nuclear reactor, because you produce the fuel off-site and then deliver it there

The dolphins have utility in harbors, littoral environments, and areas near the surface... we don't have much use for them.

The fastest shark in the sea couldn't keep up with a modern sub moving at max speed. However, subs generally don't move at high speeds for fear of cavitating. Sharks, if controllable, would be very very good weapons for "suicide" attacks.

If this turns into a giant argument, let the record show I am doing this grudgingly.

You need to power these things. You either need a nuke reactor (which regardless of miniaturization will still be pretty damn big and heavy) or some kind of AIP system, which would severely limit range.

To get the advantage of speed/maneuverability, you need to supercavitate. This means carrying along a lot of gas to create your bubble, getting gas from the water around you, or carrying your gas as a fluid. Either way you do things, you'll need bulky equipment that adds MORE size/weight to your sub; be it compressors, electrolysis machines, cryogenic storage for liquefied gas, or bulky tanks of compressed gas.

How much range do you expect this thing to have if it's fighter sized? The ocean's a big place. Any pilot spending more than a day or so in there is going to get really uncomfortable really quickly. Modern tanks feature extremely comfortable (design permitting) furnishings to improve crew performance/endurance.

A modern torpedo of any military utility is 6 meters long and weighs 1600 kg. How many do you think a fighter sized vessel is going to carry?

All of this ultimately boils down to the same reasons space fighters are impractical. If you're going to stick enough mass onto something to make it militarily useful, it's not going to really be the fighter you wanted. If you're going to strip it down for the perceived advantages, it's not going to be militarily useful.

Using such hypothetical craft for suicide missions is one thing, as is the utility of a USV... but why go to all that trouble just for a bulked up torpedo that can "MIRV" itself? Ultimately, if your interest is to build a navy that can fight, sub-fighters are not in your best interests.

It would still require advances in non-nuclear explosives and miniaturization of guidance systems, but it's possible.

Note to everyone: a supercavitating torpedo is VERY LOUD, LIKE LOUDER THAN BILLY MAYS WITH CAPS LOCK ON. Their range is also pretty limited. If you get close enough to fire it, everyone knows where you are. Everyone has longer ranged weapons that you. You cannot run that fast without cavitating, and then not only is your immediate prior location known but you can now be tracked.

If you shoot one, you stand a change of killing a target, but the probability is nearly 1 that you will be killed.

No. Literally, the Sea creeps me out. That depth picture freaked me out that was posted on here really creeped me out.

So what you are saying is we need lasers instead of explosives or some magnet technology?

Underwater Sea Lab 2020 would be an awesome game.

Okay, sonar array added. I chose a spot that won't obstruct new modules, but still makes sense (The biosub bay and repair bay are going to be part of a military base I plan to stick right on top of both.)

>>Sure are a lot of small rooms with clocks in them.

Decompression chambers. Necessary any place you're going from the main base (1 atmosphere) to a section that is directly exposed to the outside pressure.

You wouldn't happen to know if it was possible to distract a submarine, would you?

wtf is artificial wood?

i like the sonar array.

Is this thread on autosage?

>>If you shoot one, you stand a change of killing a target, but the probability is nearly 1 that you will be killed.

Suppose the fighter subs sneak up on the enemy sub via standard stealth impellers until in firing positions, then they all fire magnetic torpedos simultaneously, then use their supercav drives to rapidly escape? The enemy sub would be struck by at least most of the magnetic charges, which would not explode until the fighters departed, and the enemy sub couldn't fire upon them all. It might get one or two, but in a few seconds the rest would be gone, and the magnetic charges would explode.

those cargo boxes suck big time.
they have a really really bad flow cross-section.
remove them completely?

I would propose making a new thread, Mad Scientist.

You'd need VERY good intelligence and VERY quiet submersibles to catch a full sized sub on its patrol route.

All modern military subs undergo degaussing to prevent being vulnerable to magnetic mines. This isn't to mention the anti-sonar coating that also impairs magnetic fields from interacting with the boat's hull.

So about the supercavitating torpedo that shoots miniature versions of itself, why not have it slowly go on out for a couple of minutes while your sub turns around and starts running. You time it so that the torpedo and sub start cavitating at the same time.

Also, I would expect that if you are using the SC torpedoes that all hell has already broken loose and there is no point in hiding any more.

Okay, the new thread is active:
