Gene,

By definition, it would still be a submersible as you have to come to the surface to replenish atmosphere and batteries. The German and Swede AIP military subs are near submarine.

This thread is very interesting! One thing you give up with a concrete hull is transportability. I can pull a K350 with my F250 pickup.... not so with a concrete sub. On the other hand, a concrete submarine would be a submarine and not a submersible.
