    That is not a RUBIS class : The pilot station doesn't match, such as the TSP (tableau de sécurité plongée). The watch periscop is the model we had before modernization.
    A really mysterious picture !
    Some details on the TSP make me think of older SSBN.

    We don't mix pilot and security training with a real periscop.
    The pilot simulator in the submarine school are dynamic to train the team in high angle situation.
