The USS Requin, a Tench-class submarine, is a fascinating piece of naval history now docked at the Kamin (formerly Carnegie) Science Center in Pittsburgh along Pittsburgh's Ohio River. 

This historic vessel offers visitors a unique opportunity to step aboard and explore the cramped quarters where sailors lived and worked during the Cold War era.

The Requin provides a firsthand look into the challenges and complexities of submarine life. Visitors can navigate the narrow passageways, examine the control room, and imagine the intense pressure of underwater operations. The submarine's authentic features, including its torpedo tubes, sonar equipment, and sleeping quarters, offer a captivating glimpse into the past.

The Requin is more than just a static exhibit; it's an interactive experience that brings history to life. Through guided tours and self-guided explorations, visitors can learn about the submarine's role in naval warfare, its significance in scientific research, and the daily routines of its crew.
