Whilest surfing I came across this marine website
there is an interesting sub section (pun semi-intended).
Bizarre marine technologies are found at............

And for sub stuff we have a review of a Russian Cargo Submarine at

Russian Cargo Submarine
In 1942 the U.S. Navy used submarines run the Japanese naval blockade and bring munitions and supplies to the beleaguered soldiers on Corregidor. Shortly after this event President Roosevelt ordered the Navy to begin developing plans for a cargo carrying submarine. Three WW1 era, V-class submarines were soon brought to Philadelphia and converted to carry military cargo (source).
Roosevelt’s Barracuda class submarines never saw action but the idea has been kept alive and was revisited by all the major participants of the cold war (source) and even included a plan to build Submarine LNG Tankers. Today the idea has been given new life by the Russian submarine design firm Rubin. They explain]http://www.ckb-rubin.ru/eng/project/oth ... /index.htm[/url]
It provides a bit more info and imagery.
[b]A number of other "far out" marine technological possibilities at this url are]

Tubes In The Ocean → Bizarre Marine Technology
LG’s Unusual Launch of New Eco-Friendly Fridge
