Rep. Bartlett sees arguments for, against diesel subs

Article Abstract:

US Rep. Roscoe Bartlett outlined the advantages and disadvantages of diesel submarines as compared to nuclear-powered submersibles before a forum of the Center for Strategic and Budgetary Assessments (CSBA). While diesel submarines are quieter, more difficult for the enemy to locate and considerably cheaper to build, nuclear-powered submarines have an almost inexhaustible fuel supply and are better for long-distance missions.
