U mean??

Yup....it could happen. Which caused by external/foreign object which blocked the seawater inlet. What we do to clear is to blow high pressure thru the piping system to clear it.

Yup we have.....scorpene user club; consists of france, chile, malaysia, india & brazil. We have own discussion group, as well as conferences

Depending on the sub size.... some 14 meters, some 16 meters.... its calculated from the keel depth to the waterline

Berak/pee....all stored inside sewage lock. If its full, it will be blown out from the sub.

Sub can sustain longer than surface ship, eventhough its a conventional....because of hybrid system. For scorpene, we can sustain 50 days at sea.

If its not a good sub, there will be no new customers for the manufacturer. Till now 4 countries are using scorpene. What makes it good is..... the hydrodynamic shape of the hull which among the most silent sub ever built. It can carry many weapons compared to other conventional subs.

But dont compare with SSN.....its in other class. They have forever powerplant & speed

Which source did u get the info??

MkXI escape suit... but only for depth less than 180m, but still risky because rapid ascend can explode ur lung.

Ppl mistaken military sub has windows or camera to see outside..... which is not. Window does not give u range advantage at all.... how far can u see under the sea?? We dont speak in meters for detection range, we talk about kilometers, which only soundwave can provide.

Using passive sonar,we could detect the present of biologics around us. Yes, we could collect the data if we are required to do so

Not required... but to enter port of calls we need to submit the requirement thru agents. When transitting thru international waters & territorial waters no need

Yes...always. we could differentiate the sound from which biologics

Yup....it happened. One of it between french & UK subs

Yes...possibility is there. It happened.... also sub with surface ship

Surface temperature is higher than deep depth....hence giving negative sound velocity profile... giving much advantage for sub to hide, but also hamper sub safety when coming to periscope depth. Temperature can be 25 - 35 deg on surface, deeper can be 14 deg

When sub meet each other...its always hostile. We could not identify each other. 3 steps: avoid collision, avoid counter detection & track her.

For navigation light at surface
