I just got hired as a welder to build em. Absolutely amazing machines, and yeah, tight. I'm training to be a pipe welder, where you have to climb over and under pipes just to get to the one you need to weld somewhere buried in the belly in one of those things. I've heard some of the places you have to get to, you consider yourself lucky if you can sit up inside it to weld. Then you move onto an aircraft carrier, the exact opposite, you easily can get hopelessly lost in one of those.
