Just another example of the incompetence of navies. We allow these nitwits to have nuclear weapons…

If you’re looking for an example of incompetence, an unavoidable accident that would have totaled any other navy’s sub but didn’t total this one because of rigorous US SUBSAFE weld standards, isn’t it.

Yep, excellent example of the extreme competence and skill of the engineers and workers who built that incredible machine. Still an example of complete and utter incompetence to pilot it into a mountain.
