Reply to post: A small skirmish

Just the small matter of the bill for scrapping Blighty's old nuclear submarines: It's £7.5bn

A small skirmish

Couldn't we just start a small skirmish off an under-developed country, say alongside the Atlantic, somewhere near Las Malvinas say. Irritate the locals first, then have all the old subs surface at once. Fire a few dummy rounds to get the locals fired up and firing back.

A short battle later, one side restores their national pride and we walk away laughing.

tbf it would really require robotic crew for each sub but not impossible.
