Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich’s new yacht, The Eclipse, will soon be the world’s largest when completed (at 555 feet, 2/3rds the length of the Titanic) and will cost $350 million dollars. The Eclipse will also come with a military grade anti-ballistic missile defense system and armor plating surrounding the bridge and Abramovich’s master suite, as well as bullet-proof windows. There will also be a submarine that can be launched underwater and dive to a depth of 160 ft. that doubles as an escape pod, as well as two helicopter pads.

Reports of the yacht being stored in a giant mid-ocean lair which rises from the sea are unconfirmed…
