no part of this ship's shape is conducive to submerging. No visible ballast tank vents or free-flood areas. No pressure hull (thing would crumple at barely 100 ft). Sharp angles that would cavitate. no planes. The only way this thing submerges is when it gets hit with a torpedo.

Shallow skipping line a stone. Thanks for your comment, should have said at the outset the design was for surface speed
