"Were there any WW2 submarines whose hulls were proof against the lighter aircraft gun calibers, or was any armed aircraft an existential threat to a sub caught on the surface?" As others have said, the pressure hull needed to be thick enough to be, small, bullet proof. Now the pressure tanks surrounding it, not so much.Plink enough holes in enough of those and it's going down.

I have become aware of combined cycle power plants where a gas turbine uses its wast gas to heat a boiler. Electrical power plants using this can reach 65-67% efficiency and it is starting to make its way into marine applications. (Think COGAS is a term for that) As an Engineer, might you not want to talk about that? Seems it could bring stunning range increases for oil burners.
