Ork Submersibles are beleived to be invented by infamous Ork [[Mekboy]] [[Orghamek]] expecially for the purposes of surprize assault. They were first used during the [[Third War for Armageddon]]. Cannibalised and cobbled together from disused Imperial tankers, a whole flotilia of them was constructed in Fire Wastes. This region was judged useless by Imperial Strategos, but [[GhazskullGhazghkull Mag Uruk Thraka]] and Orghamek proved their mistake when the Submersibles crossed the ocean to get to Armageddon Prime, revealing themselves around Hive Tempestora. This manoeuvre allowed Orks to conquer the Hive in mere hours of bloody and violent fighting. Known Submersibles used on [[Armageddon]] included:{{Fn|1}}
