Thread-topic: supersonic submarines?

Interesting article:
http://www.scmp.com/news/china/article/1580226/shanghai-san-francisco-100-minutes-chinese-supersonic-submarine 

I'm reminded of Trek "warp bubbles":  *{pIvchem pel'aQ}, literally "shell" as there's no word for bubble.  (Anyone think of a better translation?)

To discuss this, we have the noun {wab} "sound, noise" available but no simple word for a submarine.  We'd need to describe it, e.g. *{bIQ'a' bIngDaq lengbogh (lengmeH) Duj}.
