HMS Ambush, the Royal Navy's newest nuclear attack submarine
HMS Ambush launched. Great pics. See link. Inside the Navy's new £1 billion supersub:
Deadly Hunter Killer submarine is capable of hearing a ship leaving port in New York... whilst sitting underwater in the English channel
One of the world's most sophisticated and powerful nuclear submarines
Carries dozens of cruise missiles capable of hitting targets 1,200 miles away
Her sonar can detect vessels moving on the other side of the ocean
Powerful nuclear reactor allows her to cruise non-stop for 25 years
HMS Ambush is so hi-tech the giant submarine doesn't even need a periscope

And we thought we had impressive stuff 'back in the day.' What's next? I remember a sign on a wall in FSS that read, "Whatever the human mind can conceive and believe...I can achieve." This proves it must be true.
Thanks for forwarding, Jim.
