Did the British not mount a 12"inch gun to a submarine in WWI, and yes people believe it or not the British also in WWI developed the one and only steam powered submarine complete with funnels and boilers called the "K" boats they were a dismal and lethal failure that were more dangerous to the crews than the enemy look them up a real tragedy of a thought pattern gone astray, the theory was they could keep up with the Grand fleet on the surface and then wreak havoc on the White fleet.:confused:
Just a quick addition maybe the British navy had periscopes for the tanks they have! :dancingbanana:
