I'm not knowledgable enough to give this a thorough once over but it's gorgeous and sleek, everything a submarine should be and it looks like a very well thought out concept. The Camouflage is a great touch!

A very sleek design and everything looks good and the layout seems reasonable. Nice work on the topside camo scheme too.

Thanks for the compliments, gentlemen. This was originally the UEO Porpoise-class SSC, from the SSC/SSK challenge, with 4 tubes instead of the six shown. I could've made it Irish, but they can build bigger SSKs instead.

I think you're squeezing in more weapons than will actually fit. The similarly sized Type 212 will only fit 13 torpedoes and nothing else at most.

Great work NH! This could be suited well in Finnish archipelago.

Your battery tanks look quite short and small. A typical submarine lead accumilator battery stands approximately three meters tall inside a blast-proof, water-proof battery tank, which adds another 50 cm to the height.

Eeo,
While I appreciate the information to allow for better accuracy, that is a rough generic placement area representation for the batteries. It is not the actual battery compartment. :)
