Well, it is not really a video of a nuclear sub made in Brazil...because it hasn't been made yet. I think you mean that it a video of the plans to make a nuclear sub in Brazil, right?
yes that is what i meant, i know it is hard to explain because Brazilian Portuguese is almost Spanish, so it is not hard even for me to Understand it but i know most of users of this Forum speak English, when i post the Videos most of the time i do it for the footage, so you can see footage of the machines Brazil makes, when i find something with subtitles is much better, it only talks about the Plans of making it and the facilities they are building in Brazil to start the production


This is the Tikuna Submarine, this was built in Brazil, if you watch the video you can see how they get into the interior of the Submarine
