Rusty British nuclear submarine returns to base after seven months on duty The British Navy has set a new record for the duration of a nuclear submarine tour. Vengens returned to base after more than seven months of unsettled water. On November 15, the strategic nuclear submarine arrived at the Paislan naval base in Scotland, ending its deployment. The ship went on tour on April 12 and spent 217 days underwater, surpassing the previous record set by Vangard - 205 days. During this period, the submarine performed missions as part of the British nuclear deterrent, where at least one British strategic submarine is constantly on combat patrol with Trident II D5 ballistic missiles. After several months under water, the natural wear of the tramp is visually visible: the appearance of corrosion on individual elements of the body and equipment; accumulation of marine organisms; Partial detachment of sound-stimulating coatings of the body. @WarPeace And You.
