Giant submarine menaces Gib

The Swiftsure class attack submarine was an evolutionary development of the Valiant/Churchill class; it incorporated new techniques of noise suppression in machinery, a more slippery shape, and a new homegrown reactor design. The two remaining in service will be replaced with Astute class subs if BAE/VSEL ever manage to finish them.
