That is eye-opening. Seems like a genius move to simplify it. Makes me wonder what military subs use. Hopefully not that giant box!

Yeah, well, military subs are HUGE (“submarines” v “submersibles”), so they can afford much larger systems. Most modern submersibles now have a version of the joystick, but they are almost all custom-built and fully integrated into the structure of the sub, much like an airplane.
