Titanic Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/7892294.stm Nuclear subs collide in Atlantic - A Royal Navy nuclear submarine was involved in a collision with a French nuclear sub in the middle of the Atlantic, the MoD has confirmed. Jesus, the bloody pond is big enough, why play in the same small bit? Does it effect their no claims bonus? Le cock-up could of caused a bit of a bang if they had hit at speed..... Although, the Ben-my-Chree had a go at the Vanguard last year in Douglas bay but wasn't quite quick enough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

La_Dolce_Vita Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 I haven't heard how badly the French sub was damaged after this. I thought it funny how the MOD kept stating how the British nuclear deterrent ability was still intact, as if we are still living in the Cold War.

monasqueen Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Merde, qu'est-ce que c'est? It seems that the stealth capabilities of submarines have improved so much that they cannot detect each others presence! It seems Le Triomphant succeeded where Ben failed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stavros Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 The Captian of the French Sub has filed a claim form on which he has drawn a little diagram of the accident and a picture of the English Captain with a little arrow calling him a fat chav!
