That’s not really true. The screw still makes some noise. One of them has been upgraded to a pumpjet, but not this one.

Once it launched the missiles, it provided a “flaming datum” that pinpoints its exact location. Odds are, even as I type, a Virginia or L.A. class boat has a solution on the little MFer...
