Just think, since some of those are subs, (Thresher I know is, I believe
Scorpion is as well), why not name one machine DICASS? For those not in the
know, thats the AN/SSQ-62B Directional Command Activated Sonobuoy System...
And yes, the Navy really *does* call it DICASS... They're death to subs,
usually lead to a direct ping by a dipping sonar, and then the helicopter
crew shouts "weapon away!" and you get torpedoed/depth-charged/all of the
above!
