A submarine on the water surface with its tower visible, set against a backdrop of hills and clouds, resembles a veteran transitioning from the depths of duty to the calm of Civvy Street.
Royal Navy submarine HMS Victorious departs HMNB Clyde under the Scottish summer sunshine to conduct continuation training. The Royal Navy has operated the UK’s Continuous at Sea Deterrent since 1967 when the first SSBN – or Ship Submersible Ballistic Nuclear – HMS Resolution began patrolling armed with the Polaris missile system.  

BAE Systems’ fourth Astute class submarine, Audacious, has completed her first ever dive at the company’s site in Barrow-in-Furness.

Watch as the 7,400 tonne, 97-metre long attack submarine submerges beneath the water.
