The Advanced Construction Sub is a level 2 naval construction unit that was introduced in The Core Contingency, replacing the Construction Ship's build list position in the Adv. Shipyard for both CORE and ARM factions. Second only to the Commander in nanolathe strength and impossible to detect without sonar by virtue of being a submarine, Advanced Construction subs are both powerful constructors and viable live-reclaimers, though the latter is dependant on jamming support and an unsuspecting opponent. Likewise with all other tech level 2 construction units, a single Advanced Construction Sub will increase a player's metal and energy storage by 100 each, in addition to passively generating +0.9 metal and +16/+17 energy per second.
