Once submerged, a Submarine can only be detected and attacked by [[Frigate]]s and other Subs. It is in this state that it can easily attack {{bw|Battleship}}s, [[Naval Transport]]s, and [[Dreadnought]]s, with little fear of retaliation. However, the vessel will eventually need to resurface to replenish its oxygen supply, leaving it exposed to nearby enemies. | ||
