Underwater?

Looking at the description of the Academic version it states that it spans from deep underwater to space.

So where are the submarines? :D

Yes, you do have the ability (with the Bathymetry option) to go deep and explore the ocean floor with either the Submarine (Ohio Class) or the Neptune Submersible.
 
Hmm I only have the Neptune small submarine robot, but no Ohio class.... But I have the 2.4 only. Is that part of 2.5 ?

Anyways, if I remember correctly, only a very small place is actually modelled underwater by default, and there's nothing beautifull to see over there.
 
Yes it is!

Wow, I hadn't seen that sneak in there! I'm surprised LM didn't make more of a song-and-dance about it!

It's like Daube said, it's not like there's amazing things to explore and find on the bottom. Mostly I think there are a few missions that place you in a specific area so you can locate a sunken ship I believe, but to just take it into a Lake or into the Ocean somewhere. . .you won't see much.
 
As far as I gather there is only one "underwater" scenery area (mesh bathymetry ) and one driveable sub in the default sim. Have not tried it yet though due to lack of interest.

Cheers,
Mark
