What is a submarine built out of?
Most submarine hulls are built of steel. Recall that a submarine is not usually considered one of the little robotic undersea machines, or a manned vessel that is operated off a support vessel. We usually reserve the term for the military submarines (boats) that put to sea for extended periods of independent operation. The Russians built a few hulls from titanium, but these boats were horrendously expensive and in so many ways were not cost effective. The lion's share of modern military boats are steel hulls with steel decks (on special supports) and filled with tons of equipment built largely of steel or other metal alloys. The modern nuclear submarines include the reactor, which has a steel pressure vessel and steel plumbing pretty much throughout the ship.
What is the plural form of hull?
The plural form of "hull" is "hulls."
