I am just a layperson but which material is used for the hulls. Titanium, Aluminium, or what? Is that irrelevant? 2001:8003:A070:7F00:502A:E996:11FA:4F85 (talk) 02:32, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Weird wording suggest meaning other than was likely intended or true.

'...Inevitable minor deviations are resisted by the stiffener rings....' \ The above quote is one example of weird wording in this article. The rings are not resisting the deviations, though the sentence would certainly suggest that. How foolish those rings would be for resisting the inevitable anyway. 70.171.44.124 (talk) 08:50, 24 January 2014 (UTC) BGriffin[reply]
