Astute Class SSN under escort on Plymouth Sound
Astute Class SSN under escort on Plymouth Sound
What appears to be an Astute class attack submarine being escorted in to Devonport. The name is unknown as the Navy doesn’t like to let give information on the whereabouts of its nuclear vessels. It is under its own power with the tugs tethered together and going in reverse. Ther were many other Royal Naval vessels there to protect the submarine at a time when it is at its most vunerable. Including men in fast boats wearing black uniforms. Other vessels were kept well away throughout the whole operation.
