So was the film of the Americans landing on the moon a fake?
Was the only real moon walk
performed by Michael Jackson??

It's a prop, guys. Not a submarine. Even real subs get the movie magic
trick. Remember the Perry wet sub in the James Bond movie? It was a real sub,
but they ran it on a wire to get the shot they wanted.

Stew,
Both pics looked PhotoShopped to me, but possibly are not. The
forward diving planes don't show at all in one photo, and it doesn't look like
it's sitting low enough in the water for them to be submerged. I think
it's a static movie prop that might float but doesn't really move under its
own power much less submerge.
Looks bad, but I bet Git Kraken can take it.

Looks
fast J
After
looking at the pic for a while… ive found a few discrepancy’s…
The
hull of the sub looks to be sitting out of the water… yet there are no
ropes/crane wires etc that I can see in any of those pics…
The
rear dive planes have no control surfaces on them!
In this picture Can anyone else see something
submerged under the front of the hull??? Directly under the port side front
dive plane…
The
front dive planes are LARGE! And look like they do move… and it has a
snorkel… Im wondering if this is a positively buoyant semi submersible… or
even one of these…
