I am far from an expert but from what I have read the Akula is highly detectable, it relies on speed and depth for defense rather than stealth

that's what I've heard also - they did steal some of our prop tech. from Teldyne-Wah-Chang in the mid-1990s so I assume they made some advances off of that

The 1949 thru 1951 Nash Ambassador was a ground breaking car. It had a unitized body, offered seat belts and was one of the earliest cars to be tested in a wind tunnel. It was also a huge hit with buyers, giving Nash it's best year in 1951. For more information on Nash cars go to nashcarclub.org

Studebaker Week Finale: 1963 Avanti – A Quick Homage And Farewell

The original Avanti’s profile had a decidedly NASCAR-ish rake to it. Odd then that when the Avanti was revived as the Avanati II, the first change made was to jack up the front end, as well as ruin the beautiful faired-in round headlights.

Why that would be called “improvement in the lines and streamlining of the new Avanti” is beyond me. The original Avanti’s stance was defined as “an aerodynamic wedge, designed to to defy the wind”.
