      Just found this channel and thanks for all the laughs. Analyst here, and the Russian sub thumbnail baited me in. I should say, now that the rest of the world can see how pathetic Russian war machines are nothing more than a Dollar General(a cheap store for poor people in America) to equate their projects. I really wished they tried to build any of these subs. Cutting to the good part: would one of these subs actually make it to our shores? No. 😅😂 If anyone is alarmed by these projects, rest assured that Russia has destroyed itself internally. Most of their remaining stock has been depleted in Ukraine. If they can recover fiscally, it will be decades before they are a threat to others...and by others, NATO countries, not former Soviet states. It was great for you to deliver this without laughing the entire time.

    Project 621 was intended to carry T-34s, not T-35s. The T-35 is a failed multi-turreted heavy tank from the 1930s whereas the T-34 was a widely successful medium tank which would've been much more suited given its size and smaller crew.

      Well, an underwater landing ship, while perfectly feasible, was never built for various reasons, so a scenario in which it was built would be fiction, and it would be a piece of technology, therefore falling under the category "science fiction." Perhaps you mean that the design wouldn't be especially futuristic, since it would be perfectly feasible with the technology of the day. But science fiction does not have to be futuristic.

It says 700 crew, with all that load there inst enough room to fit that many people, you'd need a submarine that like at least a quarter to half a mile feet long. Plus you wouldn't start the tanks in compartment because the fumes would literally just kill the sailors, you couldn't expel that much contaminated air while under the surface.

    The data on the US one should be declassified, however I recall hearing about this recently. The US Started an effort to build an undersea aircraft carrier in WWII, but it missed the war and they couldn't figure out the hatch, but they kept working on it as a troop transport but determined it wasn't worth it. So they opted to abandon it in favor surface ships because they figured it would be too big to be practical. But they do use it for marines and seal teams.

Also, can you imagine trying to clean/scrub and or generate the amount of breathing air required for over 700 people?
