The UK Prepares to Become Ruler of the Seas With Advanced, Armed New Submarines



The Royal Navy is spending 31 billion pounds on four Dreadnoughts (each weighing 19,000 tons and capable of carrying up to 12 Trident ballistic missiles).
The Dreadnought-class enters service in the early 2030s, ensuring that Britain’s nuclear deterrent is credible and effective for the foreseeable future.

Thanks for watching

  1. It's ok, the taking away of benefits of which that we have been assessed for by the DWP doctors, will pay for these. Remember, we, the disabled including ex-veterans are ruining the UK economy, yet we can afford 31 BILLION on subs alone.

  2. This is another false narrative. Why a new "super-duper" submarine benefit Great Britian…of course it will add the Royal Navy's capabilities, but unless the UK builds a significant fleet of them it won't matter a twit. To be effective, a navy needs a fleet of submarines that allows for a substantial number to be on station and allow for a similar number in port for crew rests and refit…and allowing for approximately 25% to be in dry dock for repairs. The UK would need four boats on patrol, four boats in rest and refit and allow for two to be in dry dock for repairs and upgrades. So, at a minimum the UK would need ten boats in a class…and that ain't happening.
