Challenger-class Submarine

Shaped like a shadow

Its unique teardrop shape isn't just for show: the outline of the Challenger-class submarine makes it more hydrodynamic, so that it can cut through water like the predator it is.

Size and Capacity

Submariners conduct blackout training where they learn to move around the submarine in complete darkness to operate essential equipment. As masters of the "blind man's walk", we can be sure that they know the vessel like the back of their hand - literally.
