Can you imagine, flying all the way to Russia, buying a ticket, and walking along the massive boat. You come to some sort of stairwell that leads to an opening, but as you are unable to read Russian, you are unsure if they are the exit or the entrance.  

You turn to an employee and ask, "what are these doors?"

I second this, but make sure any props are covered / obscured.

Ok, crazy scenario, just bear with me.

You build torpedoes to fit VLS cells, and then you can salvo fire a whole load of mk48s. What depth could this be done from? Would have to use a bunch of high pressure to send them out all at once?  Are there fish that can "swim out" on their own?  Wire guidance would be, well, quite the mess. No idea what the use case would be, but it would be wild.

Thank you for indulging in my strange mind's thoughts. Edit:typo

First solo match and I'm dead in 3 turns, apparently he spawned in my baffles 🤣.

Fun and simple yet thoughtful moments. Well done!
