The Submarine is a submersible warship, designed to attack other ships from underwater by firing torpedos. Although weak on defense, the Submarine is a feared offensive weapon due to its ability to attack while hidden. Often a torpedo striking a ship is the first warning that a Submarine is nearby. A lurking Submarine can hide near the sea lanes and then strike out at a passing Transport, Carrier, or other ship.
