British media shocked: All active nuclear submarines in the UK "grounded en masse," navy combat readiness in crisis
According to reports cited by The Daily Telegraph, all of the UK's currently active nuclear submarines have been withdrawn from combat duty and are undergoing technical maintenance.
The report states, "All of the Royal Navy’s active fleet of nuclear attack submarines are currently docked in port. All five Astute-class submarines are awaiting maintenance and repairs. The sixth, though already in service, is not yet ready for operational deployment."
The newspaper notes that the new Dreadnought-class submarines will not enter service until early in the 2030s. This information comes from the UK’s latest Integrated Review of Security, Defence and Foreign Policy.
