A design milestone in Royal Navy history

[Submarine Tom]

I thought hot bunking went out with the Geneva Convention years ago.

I doubt those Soviet kids even had bunks, what a "life".

Concrete; good one.

I have done 16 years on US submarines and on all boats except the "Ohio" or 726 class SSBNs hot rack. I have personal served on every class except the SSN 21 or Sea Wolf class. I can tell you hot racking is a miserable experience, and once I got to the "Boomers" i never looked back. Ports be damned at the larger bunk rooms and personal racks make life much more bearable, even when you don't see the sun for a few months! Good on the Brits their boys deserve it.
