Submarine | WW2 Submarine Action

Russian nuclear submarines in training start-up of ballistic missiles in the Arctic Ocean. NATO apparently derived the name ‘Typhoon’ from a 1974 speech by Leonid Brezhnev which mentioned a new SSBN called the “Tayfun”. In fact, the Russian name for the class is “Akula” — “Shark”. During the Cold War the Typhoon submarines prowled the waters of the North Atlantic. The Typhoon is the world’s largest submarine and was one of the most feared weapons of the Cold War. Each submarine is capable of carrying twenty long-range ballistic missiles RSM-52 ( SS-N-20 ballistic missiles, now SS-N-28 new Russian ballistic missiles) with up to 200 nuclear warheads that were once aimed at the United States.
The design of the Typhoon submarine is multi-hulled and bears resemblance to a catamaran. The submarine has two separate pressure hulls with a diameter of 7.2 m each, five inner habitable hulls and 19 compartments. The pressure hulls are arranged parallel to each other and symmetrical to a centerplane. The missile compartment is arranged in the upper part of the bow between the pressure hulls. Both hulls and all compartments are connected by transitions. The pressure hulls, the centerplane and the torpedo compartment are made of titanium and the outer light hull is made of steel. A protected module, comprising the main control room and electronic equipment compartment, is arranged behind the missile silos above the main hulls in a centerplane under the guard of retractable devices.The submarine’s design includes features to enable it to both travel under ice and for ice-breaking. It has an advanced stern fin with horizontal hydroplane fitted after the screws. The nose horizontal hydroplanes are in the bow section and are retractable into the hull. The retractable systems include two periscopes (one for the commander and one for general use), radio sextant, radar, radio communications, navigation and direction-finder masts. They are housed within the sail guard. The sail and sail guard have a reinforced rounded cover for ice-breaking.
This fastest weapon for 2-3 minute Apocalypse for any military opponent.

Free Salsa Dance Lesson : The Submarine ‘boop’ Pattern

Posted by admin | Under submarine video Thursday Sep 4, 2008

http://addicted2salsa.com/2006/06/05/salsa-dance-16-the-submarine-boop-combo/

Well, this is a funny one I think. The name of this combo was given by our videographer because every time I taught the combo I would make a ‘boop’ sound similar to that one on the radars in submarines. If you would like to do the ‘boop’ sound, it is done on the counts of 1 and 5.

I usually use this combo to give me more time to think what move/combo I will be doing next - so basically I use it to stall. Good to have it in the ’salsa arsenal’ of moves.
