Subject: Mast and Fairings
Hook    5/3/2011 3:07:41 PM
Does anybody know, or could point me to a source, what kind of metals (materials) are used for submarine's mast and fairings? I'm developing a new paint that needs to be tested on coupons of such materials. If this is way off the topic of this discussion board, please forgive me.

deep diving subs normally use steel rated at HS100

you're unlikely to get access to actual metal 

I'd suggest you go to your relevant military science agency and let them work it out, if they're interested they'll sort out a way.

open forums aren't the best way to ask these kinds of questions
