It is an "Akula" class sub, also known as "Typhoon" NATO class. It is a biggest submarine ever made. I can post some VERY rare pics of it if you guys care to see them.

It has two "Delta" hulls, side by side, with a third hull over them. It has a sauna and a swimming pool.

Only 1 other hobby: Mountain biking.

But I can't resist upping the travel...

as I said; breathing, eating, sleeping, feeding my cat, and goldfish, checking the batteries, buying groceries, gasoline, diesel..I've done photography and b+w darkroom work, coffee roasting, espresso, (should I say cigars? I tried a few brands, but I'm down to just a couple now..) trying to get a building permit (done), trying to build a house, trailer livin', nature, good tools,
digging ditches..
 
HeavyArmor, expensive hobby! I've shot .50 BMG before prone and unmounted. It made my teeth rattle and I felt the recoil from my head to toe.

Between the cost of the rounds and the dental work I'd need

, I figure .30 cal is much more my style...
 
Look at my thread " Red October". it is dedicated to submarines of CCCP and Russian Federation.
 
Would it be a SSBN or a SSGN?
<font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">But SSBN of course. It would be very unwise to build a SSGN of that size - slow, hard to steer,etc...

SSGN's main purpose was to employ "Hit and Run" strategy, they were designed with sole purpose of destroying NATO battle groups; later subs - US carrier groups.
 
Besides flashlights, I also love drumming, martial arts, snow boarding, and car stuff. Not to mention collecting generation 1 Transformer toys and watching Dragon Ball Z.

all things gadgetty - torches, knives, other gear
IDPA and casual pistol shooting
a little hunting
dog training
reading, esp BIBLE
primitive camping/hiking
and in order of priority Faith, Family and Education
 
Dogs, cooking, computers, dvd's, DirectTV, wine, cleaning the house.

Cleaning the house is like buying flashlights. Both will never be completed!
 
Before marriage and kids: firearms & competitive shooting, knives, amateur radio (KG6AHU), camping/outdoors/4-wheeling (Jeep YJ).

After marriage and kids: household maintenance, flashlights, and child-rearing.
 
I'm a geek, I'm into computers and cars. I'm 27 and have been into computers since I got my C64 in 1984. I was building PC's by the time I was 12, and a friend and I had a business by the time we were 13.

Now most of my money goes into cars, namely my 1991 300ZX Twin Turbo. It currently has around 410hp/470 lbs of torque. I'm about to upgrade the turbos and injectors and I'm aiming for 700+ HP, still using the stock internals.

Wow, that's in pristine condition too. It's got great lines. Still. Even today. I wish Nissan didn't feel it necessary to have redesigned it into the current-fad blockyness as with all the rest of the sports cars. But it's only my opinion.
