      Wouldn't it have been more practical to invade using cargo ships and converted civilian airliners? They would appear as standard vessels and can carry enormous quantities of men and supplies.

      Just found this channel and thanks for all the laughs. Analyst here, and the Russian sub thumbnail baited me in. I should say, now that the rest of the world can see how pathetic Russian war machines are nothing more than a Dollar General(a cheap store for poor people in America) to equate their projects. I really wished they tried to build any of these subs. Cutting to the good part: would one of these subs actually make it to our shores? No. 😅😂 If anyone is alarmed by these projects, rest assured that Russia has destroyed itself internally. Most of their remaining stock has been depleted in Ukraine. If they can recover fiscally, it will be decades before they are a threat to others...and by others, NATO countries, not former Soviet states. It was great for you to deliver this without laughing the entire time.

    Project 621 was intended to carry T-34s, not T-35s. The T-35 is a failed multi-turreted heavy tank from the 1930s whereas the T-34 was a widely successful medium tank which would've been much more suited given its size and smaller crew.

It says 700 crew, with all that load there inst enough room to fit that many people, you'd need a submarine that like at least a quarter to half a mile feet long. Plus you wouldn't start the tanks in compartment because the fumes would literally just kill the sailors, you couldn't expel that much contaminated air while under the surface.

      A sub that big, especially a Soviet/Russian sub, would be very noisy. That means it would easily be detected and modern torpedoes are sonar homing. There's no way the Soviets could have kept those things a secret and once the secret was out the US would have, (assuming it hadn't already) ringed any vulnerable base with acoustic sensors to detect them approaching. After detection, helicopters could pinpoint the sub and drop homing torpedoes on it. So this is one of those ideas that sounds cool for a movie or video game, but would fail hard in real life.

So they opted to abandon it in favor surface ships because they figured it would be too big to be practical. But they do use it for marines and seal teams.

    Dude, you completely missed IJA cargo submarine force consist of Type-3 'Maru - Yu' boats, design to transport 23 tons of freight & 40 troops, nearly 400 planned but 38 went out of production into action, you cannot miss this part of history when talk about cargo submarines.

    large sub, worthless as most ideal landing beaches have long shallow shores making it most likely for the large sub to beach itself easily. small sub, tanks do not easily/quickly move sideways from a tight confined space and likely the ice could not even support the tank where the sub has to break through thin layers only.

    I’m no military strategist, but even I know that an expeditionary military operation isn’t hard because it’s hard to get the tip of the spear there; it’s hard because you need to keep them supplied. So you get a half of a BTG to North America. Fine. All they have with them is enough supplies for at best 3 days of fighting. Probably much less. There’s no version of this where it would be anything more than a harassing tactic, and it would be understood to be a one way ticket to America for everyone.
