The Fleet Snorkel was only marginally related to the GUPPY series. Fleet Snorkels were intended as an austere (and much less expensive) alternative to the expensive and extensive changes required for a GUPPY conversion. The Fleet Snorkel program ran (IIRC) into the early 50's in parallel with the GUPPY program. The best information about the GUPPY program is in John Alden's "The Fleet Submarine in the US Navy".Elde 07:36, 28 Jan 2004 (UTC)
I think Fleet Snorkels belong here pretty much, as they are part of the GUPPY program, a redirect from Fleet Snorkel to this page might be in order. (And there really isn;t much beyond what's here and in the article.) I'll do so, and expand the paragraph here later tonight. I'm borrowing a copy of 'Fleet Submarines' later this week to write an article on Radar Pickets and the MIGRAINE program, I'll dig into the sections on GUPPY and Fleet Snorkel and update anything interesting into this article page.
