The Albacore-class SSN, also known as the 680-class due to the hull number of the PRN Albacore (SSN-680) is a Paternian nuclear-powered fast attack submarine. Developed to replace a mixed array of diesel-electric and nuclear-powered boats, the Albacore-class was a potent addition to the Paternian Navy submarine fleet.
Her nuclear power allows her to remain underwater as long as provisions will hold out, usually 90 days. Armed with four 533mm (21-inch) torpedo tubes, she can fire a variety of munitions including long-range anti-ship missiles, land-attack missiles, anti-submarine missiles, naval mines, and of course, torpedoes. Later vessels would have the ability to launch 12 HSLAM multirole surface attack missiles from VLS tubes in the bow.
With a top speed of at least 25 knots and an operating depth of 600 meters, they are among the most powerful submarines developed. A total of 80 boats were made. One vessel, PRN Sturgeion (SSN-712) would see service stretching from the late 20th century to the early 22nd century.
Notes: Torpedoes can be fired at all depths.

@Parshainaerospace Well either way you can’t.
@Parshainaerospace You don’t need to, it’s confusing.
@Parshainaerospace
Their RP is both dead and vile.
@Parshainaerospace
I didn't. I had a skirmish in SLRP with Halcyon.

@Pilotmario
I'm not a part of your RP, so you shouldn't have a problem. None of your countries have ever existed in SPMRP.
@TheFantasticTyphoon Unfortunately, due to several circumstances such as the vehicle's nature as a multi-purpose platform and an agreement between the nations of Paternia and Aleuztia (MAE #56709n4) outlining the prohibition of the export of military vehicles and armaments to those who are not aligned with us and poses a threat to both nations' sovereignty.
As such, the export of military vehicles and armament is limited to countries such as the Imperial Syllix, the Kingdom of Nordennarvik and the Greater Hellenic Republic.
@TheFantasticTyphoon Certain select nations are allowed and most are your past enemies like Eternistan, Halcyon and others....
@Pilotmario
IDA?
I have no interest in supplying these vessels to non-IDA states. Carry on.
@TheFantasticTyphoon @Parshainaerospace
@Parshainaerospace
Yes, but not in looks or controls.
@Parshainaerospace
If you want.
@Parshainaerospace
Buy them as they are and we can upgrade the systems and weapons to our standard upon delivery.
@Parshainaerospace
The weapons on this aren't exactly old.
@Parshainaerospace
This.
The Saltwater Carrier Nation wishes to purchase five.
That surprised me too. @ItsErisGaming
Suprisingly the part count is very low
