    Why would you pick a submarine for civil purposes? Just use a “normal” freighter and “slap” nuclear power on it.

    (Ignoring the glaring issues from nuclear power on land that would be exacerbated at sea)

      Ok maybe I wasn’t clear enough. That’s exactly what I meant. The nuclear technology, not the submarine technology.

      What are the glaring issues?
