So that´s why the Russians scrapped the entire Alfa class of subs. They sold 
the titanium to Olympus so that they could continue making OM-3Tis and OM-4Tis! 
:-)
Since there are several other sub classes today that are built in titanium as 
well, the risk of running out of this metal seems remote.

I wonder if the little titanium screw that my dentist used to repair a tooth 
the other day belongs to the same shipment? Didn´t I read somewhere that metal 
items coming from the Russian military could be radioactive..  :-/
