. Deep submersible logistic support design Oceanography. A first step in testing the submarine support craft idea might be to modify a recently decommissioned diesel submarine. Figure 15 compares the profiles of an SS416 class diesel submarine with one modified to include a submersible locked into place at frame 40. Arguments for or against this idea hinge on the relatively high cost of maintaining the submarine. To counter the expense of keeping the submarine certifiable to dive, one could permanently surface the vessel or limit its dives to 50 feet. The reduction from a wartime cre

To counter the expense of keeping the submarine certifiable to dive, one could permanently surface the vessel or limit its dives to 50 feet. The reduction from a wartime crew to a submersible support ship crew would reduce costs and provide adequate hotel facilities and support systems ready for immediate utilization. From an organizational standpoint, the submarine force would have complete control over both craft and would not have to worry about interface problems realized between surface and submarine sailors. The surface support craft, still a major component of the concept, would be used when the submersible was flown to remote areas or when the support submarine was drydocked. SUBMARINE.
