* Creator/GlenCook's "Passage at Arms" follows the story of a Climber ship, a type of spaceship that can under very specific circumstances essentially drop out of conventional space and fly almost undetectable except for a "pseudo-Hawking black hole" several millimeters wide. The primary danger is that while in climber space the ship cannot release the heat buildup from any of their systems.

** Later ''Franchise/StarTrek'' films would play with the trope further, with the ''Enterprise'' and other Starfleet ships having to contend with cloaked Klingon warships:
** ''Film/StarTrekIIITheSearchForSpock'': The USS ''Grissom'' is destroyed in a surprise attack by Kruge's Bird of Prey; later on the ''Enterprise'' is also badly damaged by Kruge's ship.
** ''Film/StarTrekVTheFinalFrontier'': The ''Enterprise'' spends much of the film being persued by another Bird of Prey commanded by Klaa.
** ''Film/StarTrekVITheUndiscoveredCountry'': A Klingon starship carrying Chancellor Gorkon to meet with the President of the Federation is attacked by a cloaked Klingon Bird of Prey hoping to frame the ''Enterprise'' for the attack. The film's climax has the ''Enterprise'' and the USS ''Excelsior'' battling the advanced Bird of Prey which, unlike her predecessors, does not need to [[InvisibilityFlicker uncloak to fire her weapons.]]

* ''Film/TheSpyWhoLovedMe''
** This one features multiple submarines. Among its more notable aspects is a movie featuring Main/PageThreeStunna pics somehow getting a PG when the BBFC reclassified the thing and Barbara Bach's shower. On naval ships, water is at somewhat at a premium (no, you can't get it directly from the sea- that's salt water and you need to desalinate it first) and sailors take a "Navy Shower"- rinse, lather, rinse off. Bach has the shower running. The captain clearly liked her- "Hollywood Showers" are only given if you've done something special.
