Thought I'd set a good example. This is what the site is about!

A proposal from BMT in Great Britain for a large, ocean-going, conventional submarine of 3600 tonnes submerged displacement, the Vidar-36 design.

Very interesting design! What is that tube sticking out above the propellor?

Towed array sonar. Australian Collins class SSKs have a similar tube.

Mind you, it has six torpedo tubes, eighteen weapons, it's action radius is over 2000 seamiles, and it has AIP. It's pretty much a Collins equivalent. Only I trust BMT to get it right :D
