Best Answer

Diesel subs can probably run somewhere between 4 hours and 2 days. I hope someone can give a much more precise measurement, but that information may be classified. The answer also depends on what sub, and who it belongs to. Also, the battery cells can wear out over time, so the range decreases until they are replaced.

Could submarines fire torpedos underwater?

Yes. The idea of the submarine is the element of surprise. Before nuclear power submarines ran on either battery power or diesel power. Every so often it needed to surface (or use a snorkle - no kidding, it's called a snorkle) to run the diesel (which would both propel the sub and charge the battery) Now, with nuclear power, the submarine can stay underwater as long as there is food for the crew. A submarine nuclear reactor can last for years.

Will battery lose power if starter is bad?

your battery will not lose power due to your starter being bad. if you have attempted to start the engine and did this for a long period of time with out the engine or an out side source of power charging the battery, it will eventually lose power, due to working and not charging. But for the original question, no the battery will not lose power if the starter is bad. hope this helps
