WitawatWatawit Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 What's the difference between a Thai bar girl and a Thai submarine?....They don't know, since no one in Thailand has ever been inside of a submarine. Nooooooooooooooooo, here submarine is thought of as a sandwich. ................. Oh. So that was what she and her girlfriend were referring to last night. A snack. !!!!!

jackr Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 I hope this news doesn't make it back-home... they already think ole Muang Thai's a bit of a joke. Happy submarine day, everybody! So what's next, Tank Day? M16 Day? Spud Gun Day? All joking aside, expect any delivery to be a Thai special, i.e. with a big windscreen so Somchai can see where he's going.

worgeordie Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 When/if they ever get one,I bet there will be no volunteers for manning it, they can park it next to the aircraft carrier,that has no planes,and it can become a tourist attraction. regards Worgeordie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thai at Heart Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 It's two or three good laughs a day at the moment. One at least can't say that Thai politics is boring. If they had asked for a hovercraft landing craft it might make more sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manxninja Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 If Thailand asked very nicely maybe they could borrow the USA or UK Trident submarine for a test drive, although i think Iran and Syria will be seeing these up close and personal very soon.

ginjag Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 'Closed sea areas'... are they talking about the gulf of Thai ??? if so subs would be stupid as the water depth is an average of 30 meters, I think. In these enclosed waters any threat from who??? who on earth would venture into a U shaped gulf, (surface vessels) when these would be easy pickings for fast torpedo boats, and aircraft such as the Grifen . no enemy sub would dare to come into 30 meters of sea- suicide . Subs not needed, only for toys and "WE have them" Average water depth is about double what you have said, but the fact remain's...even at 60-65m wouldnt be hard to pick up from the air, further predicting route a sub will take will be pretty easy, as a enemy sub deciding to head up the middle of gulf will run the risk of driving into one of many offshore platforms, piplines or other sub-sea O&G structures...the sub captain would have to have a lot of balls to even try and negotiate that lot...so in essence they would only come up the west side or east side of the gulf. I picked the depth off a post (I think) the last time they were discussing subs from Germany, that's why I put not sure. The other point is not so much enemy (foolish) subs to enter gulf of Thai, it was Thai wanting some subs, they would have to negotiate in and out of the gulf from say Sattahip. If they bought they would have to be near out of date stuff, and to attack what ships example-threat from who ??? China ?? Ha ha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Docno Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 hahaha those silly Thais again. Wait! What is this I found in Wikipedia? ... "April 11 is commemorated by the United States submarine community as Submarine Day, the anniversary of April 11, 1900 when the American Government purchased its first commissioned submarine, the USS Holland." Looks like their just importing their silliness from another great country overseas. Over and out, Scotty.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd have a few nervous sea personnel also, all aboard brown underwear only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianCR Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 <deleted> no-one has said SUB HUB!! The navy boys must be getting a little distressed, they want some new toys. Who could possibly be a threat against Thailand? Samoa has some war canoes. . Happy War Canoe Day! By the way, not to be outdone, Thailand has ordered 3 submarines to use against the Lao Navy in case they want to invade - when it was pointed out that Lao was completely landlocked the Thai military had a meeting and solved the problem by having the submarines fitted with wheels!

ratcatcher Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 So the navy boys want subs, the fly boys have just had Christmas with new Gripen fighters and I am wondering, what does the army want? They've had a blimp that holds less hot air than parliament, bomb detectors that can't detect shit and personnel carriers that run on borscht. What's happening in the barracks? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
