    I don't know about USS Growler, but I do know that you can go on and tour and even take rides on USS Blueback (Barbel class) at the OMSI Museum in Portland, Oregon. I've been on it:happy:. At the Intrepid Air and Space Museum you are allowed to explore the carrier, but can't go on or in...

    suggestions required for visit to america.

    I travel to the US frequently for work related business, so I've a few pointers. The US is huge, really huge, so keep in mind you wont be able to do everything you planned. A lot of tourists go to the US thinking they can cross the country in a day, see every sight and experience everything. I...

    Pakistan Navy forces out an armed Indian Submarine from Pakistani waters.

    *So I edited a few things into my post, but they didn't show up. I'm reposting instead. Drop signaling depth bombs. Low power alternative to kill devices designed to make a lot of noise and shake the submarine, but not damage it. Used during the Cold War by both sides to let a submarine know...

    Whatever

    What happened to my neck:unsure:? I look horrible in pink too:undecided:. Remember, I'm a swimmer so my legs are kind of toned. They look good in a dress or skirt, but it's got to be the right kind, otherwise the whole ensemble ends up being less flattering then wearing a garbage bag. And...

    Whatever

    Well I meant Lagertha, not specifically Katheryn Winnick. If she was really Nordic, she'd look like the rest of us of Norse decent. Though the Sami people and other indigenous types do look different from the prototypical blonde hair, blue eyed Scandinavians. They're more Russian in their...

    Whatever

    The PN detected a surfaced submarine with its antenna out... a sign of no ill intentions. Not exactly a major coup as far as I'm concerned. It'd be more troubling if they didn't notice it. In fact, it's standard protocol when a vessel is transiting another's waters, or near to another's waters...

    Pakistan Navy forces out an armed Indian Submarine from Pakistani waters.

    I've seen potatoes with better picture quality. I can't tell what I'm looking at:wacko:. P-3C or Helo? But good job! The ability to detect and thwart submarines is one of the most vital necessities for the PN, especially as India invests further in both conventional and nuclear boats. Next...

    Think twice before you marry a cousin

    Ewww:o:!! I love my family, cousins included, but geez even an open minded girl like me has her limits. Marrying your cousin? Eww:wacko:. I married a redhead. I'm 100% Nordic - typical blonde hair, blue-eyed girls. My partner has Celtic heritage, mixed in with Norwegian blood. Natural red hair...

    Poland looks to buy new Homar-300 tactical missile system

    New might not be the best word to describe the system, since it's based on the proven HiMARS rocket system (same launcher, different chassis). Imagine an HiMARS pod on this chassis - that's Homar (Lobster. Yes, lobster) 300. The chassis is already found on the WRL 100 Liwiec counter...

    I've mentioned it before, but will reiterate that will tensions are high between Europe and Russia, we've managed to maintain relatively good relations with out neighbor. Out two navies occasionally hold joint exercises, which isn't something most European nations can claim.

    So I mentioned Norway (specifically the Norwegian Coast Guard) has a lot of ships that look similar two posts back... here's a few classes that emphasis this. Outer Coast Guard vessels KV Svalbard (stand alone) - heavy icebreaker Nordkapp Class - OPV Barentshav Class - OPV NoCGV...

    IDEAS 2016 Preview: Blitzkrieg Solution MRAP to be unveiled on IDEAS 2016

    I'm not sure which pics you're looking at, but the similarities between the two designs - apart from being mine resistant vehicles - aren't very pronounced. The wheel well sure, but it's just a standard design on an MRAP-type: Comparing the Blitzkrieg design with Dingo... I'm not really...

    IDEAS 2016 Preview: Blitzkrieg Solution MRAP to be unveiled on IDEAS 2016

    Looks can be deceiving and drawing any conclusions from simple pictures is very difficult. Dingo doesn't have a noticeably distinctive hull shape and looking at the type from several different profiles, it can be easy to miss that it is infact a V-hulled vehicle and is used to support EOD...

    3 Nansen Class Frigates, 4 Skjold Class Corvettes, 2 Alta Class Minehunters and 1 ship I can't make out because Norway has too many that look the same:lol:. It's probably either A50 Tyr, a minelayer, or A535 Valkyrien, a fleet support ship.
