johnlandy Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 So it's submarines now. Oh well, they already have the worlds smallest aircraft carrier so a couple of midget submarines would be good to have. Then the admirals could play with them in the bath.

Torrens54 Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 At least it's not a national holiday I guess. Just wait till next year. National Holiday and toy subs to use in the CNX Moat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EyesWideOpen Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 (edited) 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.... Maybe I am just being a bit picky, but it seems to me a country with submarines having a submarine day makes a whole lot more sense that a country without submarines having a submarine day...... Research who put a stop to this submarine nonsense a few years ago, and it will make this latest attempt to get a submarine even more ridiculous... Malaysia bought a couple of toy diesel subs for 3.4 billion ringit. After seeing a photo of the submarine, I have a feeling it would not do well against a USA Los Angeles class submarine... :-) http://www.defencetalk.com/malaysia-first-submarine-unable-to-dive-24168/ The " commission " scoop off was 540 million ringit... Ahhhh now this desire for a submarine is making more sense !!!!1 Edited September 5, 2013 by EyesWideOpen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TackyToo Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Only in Thailand. What's next space shuttle day? They don't have one of those either. Duck and dive, so you don't have to solve the problems on the surface. Why do they need submarines in a country surrounded by shallow water in the first place? To threaten the Maldives?

anotheruser 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? The only threat to Thailand comes from inside Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peecee Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Only in Thailand. What's next space shuttle day? They don't have one of those either. Most navies man their boats with submariners as marines have a tough time hitting the beach (from a torpedo tube maybe?). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EyesWideOpen Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 Muff diving 101! no muff's too tough...we dive at 5... I always wondered where that came from.... "Sometime during the mid to late 1960's, in Pasadena, California USA, there was an auto muffler shop called "American Muffler". On their sign, and on gimme hats and T-shirts they sold, it said, "American Muffler - the friendly muffler shop - "No Muff Too Tough... We Dive 'Till 5"."
