Best Answer

Submarines have to be very strong because when they are deep under water, there is a great deal of pressure exerted on them by the water. A hollow container underwater is not like a fish underwater, since the fish's body is filled with fluids (blood or other bodily fluids) that are no more compressible than the surrounding water is. Air behaves differently, it is compressible, so the hull must be strong.
