A submarine has two displacements. The surfaced and the dived.
The difference is the volume of the ballast tanks.
You can build a boat with a surface displacement of 500 Kg and dived
displacement of 700 Kg
and another one with surface 600 and dived 680 kg..
One has more freeboard than the other.. - But which one is smaller?

However, the other dimensions of the submarine (length,

confirmation of the displacement of the vessel must be supplied.

moving under its own power).

ascending and descending under its own power.

that the occupant/s can breathe without assistance) and the

minutes.
