Submarine technology "stealth" Russian

Hydrogen is the first Russian submarine B-90 Sarov
Long submarine upgrades become technologically advanced submarine .. Is a Russian who has developed a hydrogen-fueled power plants for submarines can not use nuclear energy sources.
This clearly will benefit the users of the submarines made in Russia as Iran. With hydrogen fuel, a submarine can last longer at sea and improve the mileage of the submarine, quoted from reports G2 Bulletin
By Russia, made a special submarine to use this technology. Russia's new submarine is named B-90 Sarov, a hydrogen-fueled power plants that will be similar to the submarine U-212 and U-214 German.
Many benefits with this technology. Some old Russian submarine diesel electric powered using batteries to supply power. When the battery is depleted it should be replenished, submarines had to rise to the surface and start the diesel engine to recharge the battery. Battery charging process is prone to enemy threats. By using hydrogen-fueled engines, electric motors disupai of hydrogen fuel cells.
Engine new Russian submarines are referred to as "air-independent propulsion," which will increase the speed of the submarine to dive, more silent (quiet) and can certainly compete with the German submarine, which some of the German submarines also owned by Israel.
Fuel cell is an electrochemical conversion device that combines hydrogen and oxygen to produce water, electricity and heat. This principle has been used in several automotive and aerospace technology.
Dr. Edward C. Whitman, editor of Undersea Warfare Magazine, saw the use of fuel cells will increase the ability of two to three fold in the next few years, which will give a better tactical flexibility because of its small size and feature silent (quiet) attached to it.
Paradigm of a new type of submarine propulsion that will bring us to the underwater warfare where submarines that use this technology will be a threat to conventional submarines are electric powered and nuclear submarines, said Whitman. Propulsion submarines of different types (conventional and nuclear) submarines mewaspadaai need this type and must fully understand the capabilities at sea.
