Truly extraordinary.Like the mutiny at Basra and the general problem with maintaining order, discipline and control of who fire is directed at in Afghanistan by the British Army, USMC and US Army. The most potent nuclear submarine is of no use if the crew will not follow the command of the UK politican leadership and ratings won't obey the officers. Increasingly in all Western Armed forces it can not be guaranteed the ratings will follow the orders of officers even in action or crisis.
What the hell was she doing in such a tight spot? How about transferring personnel in a safer place? Guess the RN always has to do things the hard way. Here in the US, we have enough trouble with subs bumping into things without driving them into such shallow water.
True about the tech arma but you could still see its prop layout which is classified plus its displacement which gives a clue to all kinds of things.ps arma 2 for the win :) pps lol to the german navy and its 10p fleet
@stig781 You people are more fucked up than the Russians when it comes to subs good luck with your welfare budget you will be selling your subs off to the Greeks !
@Zero7evenX British submariners are the Best in the world, The USA sends its submariners to England to be trained on the Perisher course for submarine commanders, the toughest course in the world.
BAE Systems is the worlds largest arms developer, who develops & supplies a vast amount of the US military tech.
@Zero7evenX BULLSHIT..You learned from the Americans how to build nuclear subs in the first place..First British nuclear reactor was an exact copy of the American Westinghouse.
Who has more experience in design and construction of nuclear subs ? Moron..The Astute needed an awful lot of US engineering assistance after it was delayed more than two years..You don't train Americans,you never did.. On the contrary,RN Trident 2 crews are trained in the US..
@Zero7evenX Go and fuck yourself you delusional limey faggot..British nuclear sub technology comes from the US. .the whole propulsion system of the Spearhead torpedo is manufactured in the US. The Astute class has little electronics made in the UK..
Bae systems my ass... Lockheed,Northrop,Boeing,General Dynamics and Ratheon supply 10 times more technology,parts,components to Britain than the Bae Systems supply to the US.
I read about the shooting , this is crazy. I wonder if it happened outside while she was docked or inside the sub, this is nuclear powered so very very concerning
@scanman2012 If the photog could see it from the surface, it would be easily visible to anyone from a recon satellite. But they have more expensive cameras up there, so they'd get more detail despite the greater distance.
wow i just watched hunt for the red october and it made me look up submarines and i see this, weird.
