A submarine is used as a subsurface naval weapons platform, or as a tool of exploration and recreation. The latter may be manned or robotic, and have a wide range of characteristics and applications. They are usually operated from or with direct reliance on a support vessel of some kind. We've seen them carrying investigators to the deepest oceans, or surveying shipwrecks on the bottom of the sea.
The former are usually sophisticated naval vessels capable of great range and extended independent operation. They can carry torpedoes to sink other vessels, or guided missiles to be launched at distant targets to deliver nuclear payloads. The newer munitions include cruise missiles which can be launched from the submarine, or anti-ship missiles which can also be launched from below the surface. Certainly there are a number of instances of "spooks" working with the submarine service in a number of espionage or "black ops" projects. It could be the insertion of a SEAL team, or the gathering of intelligence in various ways.
