Would strategic bombing or anti merchant shipping submarine warfare be a war crime today?

Like if world war 3 were to happen would all that shit be illegal under the Geneva convention? I feel like after 2 years of war if the US was seriously committed they’d throw the Geneva convention out the window. Not like abolish it, they’d still pretend to follow it but like I could see it being largely ignored in its more grey areas.

Morally and ethnically what is y’all’s take on this sort of stuff? Are we as bad as the Wehrmacht for doing strategic bombing? Is it justifiable? I understand deliberately targeting factories during total war even if there are civilians inside it ultimately is a military target (debatable if it’s a valid one tho) but we did more than that like deliberately fire bombing Japanese cities made out of wood, just burning them the fuck down. Not to mention what we did at Dresden

Thoughts on Cram Cannon Mortars on Submarines

As the Title says I would like to know if the Cram Cannon Mortars are a good idea on Submarines. The reason would be most shells will miss when they bounce of the water protecting the Submarine while still being cost effective(compared to APS or Missile Submarines) and protected from Planes. My concern is that the Ship will get good targeting or the water will slow the Shells down to much

Engineers and world builders of Reddit, what is your perfect design for an Anti-Monster Submarine?

Now this question may sound odd, but this subreddit is certain to give the coolest, best and overall wackiest descriptions

Now here is the context:

"The year is 1989, and the world is under an extremely turbulent time period; to make matters worse, the Atlantic has become a battle-zone.

Patches of this great body of water have become graveyards for ships, with 19 military vessels and 67 commercial ships facing fierce attacks from what the Pentagon has found to be a gigantic sea anomaly.

President Bush, furious at the possibilities of this creature begining to base itself in the East Coast of the United States has given permission for the Navy to create a new weapon - a submarine capable of taking down whatever this creature may be"

RESTRICTIONS - The submarine has some specific restrictions:

-The submarine's primary and only purpose is to take down a gigantic sea monster (its length is of 103m)

-The submarine is only allowed to have materials and weaponry developed up until 1989

-And for the sake of full context, the submarine will be backed by 3 destroyers and a carrier

Have fun Reddit!
