What the hell is the little minisub on the rear of the sub? It's not a Dry Deck Shelter (DDS), so what is it?

I think it's one of those Navy SEAL insertion subs. Not sure though. |

DarthPanda drew it and posted it as a separate image on the old board. It's the Advanced Seal Delivery System |

Anyway, I can't believe they named a sub after the Peanut Farmer... but whatever. |

Ostensibly it's because he was a major player in nuclear submarine development - apparently he was a chief engineer on a nuke boat and in a high-up position in the civilian side of the nuclear program, or something like that. I'm sure Wikipedia has a few facts not pulled from random asses. |

He served on Submarines, and by naming a sub after him, you can't name a carrier after him. And if you make the sub a Spec-Ops sub, then it will never be in the news. |
