    If i told you, i think you know what i'd have to do!

    Honestly i dont know. But it was a huge laugh! I wish i was there when they handed the pics to the americans!!

      Thats a top effort under the Americans would have pissed them off. Someone must have been slacking off or crap at their job or the collins class is really efficent at what its designed for and the media is full of crap.

          In a war game one got underneath an american air craft carrier and took photos of the hull. And got away. I didnt get detected. The yanks of course didnt believe it....until they were shown the pics of the bottom of their most protected boat in their fleet!!

          If we were the enemy, we could have placed 6 torpedos into the side of it. It would have sunk a boat carrying over 110 jets nad 2000 people.

          The subs sit within line of site of a mobile phone tower of our neighbours. Put up an arial, and listen to every mobile phone convo that goes thru that tower...without being detected.

          Long story short, they are quiet.

          heheheh I read about this in navy news as well as thru the grapevine (we support the minehunters)
          Turns out, far too much has been written about great men and not nearly enough about morons

            Any more stories? I love hearing this stuff. But I understand u cant say too much.

            Go the Collins class Out of interest, how far under the hull was it?
            people that work for the services or contract to them can only tell you whats already been published, regardless of what they know.

            but, in that view, a commercial cable laying vessel got their cable snagged on an object off shore of NSW in an old warfare testing site and sent divers down to investigate. they found a "suspect"object the cable was jammed on. HMAS Huon (Minehunter) was called in to investigate and sent their ROV down and discovered that they had disturbed an unexploded bomb LOL

            some nifty pics came back from the ROV colour camera!


            coulda been very bad heheh

              Anyone looking for an update on the big rock thats still out there somewhere, there is a Forum started up in NZ :

              http://www.represent.co.nz/forum/viewforum.php?f=1

              There are people now saying that this thing is the planet X, otherwise known as Nibiru, that comes around every 3,650 years and creates massive destruction on earth.

              There is a wealth of historic information on this horror, do a search.

                  Not sure what it is, but I did a search for, "comet neat update" and that is what turned up. I am running out of ISP time, so cannot stick around much longer today. I had a quick look, and thought I would pass on the link.

                      Hey Benno, I love it when the Yanks come here to do wargames.
                      We beat the crap out of them and then send them home. :D

                      Got a mate in the NZ Navy (Was MEO of the Canterbury for a while) and he said that the towed array they bought off the Poms was bought without the analysis software, so they made their own. It turned out to be better than the Pom's software so they sold it back to them.

                        i actually know SFA about Australian submarines - i'm assuming they operate on a diesel/battery combination?

                        if so, they should be damn quiet when using batteries, but how much noise is radiated by the diesel - forgive me if this is classified :p

                          Yeah, they're all Diesel/battery. Unless they're hiding something from us

                          How many knots can a collins class pull?

                            Guys, I love the Trinity and Beyond doco, and bought it the other day as a mater of fact. It comes on DVD with the other, shorter doco, called "Atomic Filmmakers" about the "Lookout Mountain" studios and the photographers/cinematorgraphers whose job it was to film/record all of the blasts.

                            If I can be arsed, I could MPEG the bit that gianttomato mentioned, as I was watching the movie last night the exact same thought sprung to my mind - that the footage he refers to would be a good example of what an underwater explosion can do...

                            Would you like that? Coz I'm not gunna bother if you don't care. :p

                              crx: they dont run the diesel when someone is trying to find them.. eg.. they have to come up to periscope depth, put the masts up, and fire up the diesels to charge up.. when they are electric, they are VERY quiet... well.. nuclear subs are quiet.. and they have to have cooling pumps etc running 24/7 when a diesel electric wants to go silent.. they go silent...

                              To give you an idea how much electrical power they store, ive heard a story about a spanner being dropped across the main busses on a one of an O boats battery banks, and it vaporised...

                              No-logic.. it was published on a guys website via a security leak, (as opposed to the official figure.. ) but its faster than you would think.,...
                              This is a post i wrote by mistake, which is nice...

                                Collins subs are crap, they all have problems and none are battle ready after about 7 years....
