Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Submarines are watercrafts designed for independent and sustained operation under water and come in all shapes and sizes, from small autonomous or remotely controlled underwater vehicles to huge nuclear powered vessels with crews of more than 80 sailors. With the ability to remain submerged and undetected for weeks or months and to launch nuclear-armed ballistic missiles, these nuclear submarines have become one of the most feared weapons systems of any military.
