Vanguard II.

This is coolbert:

American missile and not the British submarine and crew to blame?

First Vengeance, now Vanguard!

Atomic English submarine force Trident missile malfunction. Two missile launchings in a row now unsuccessful!

Nuclear deterrent British now compromised?

"British nuclear missile 'misfires and crashes into ocean'"

From Telegraph Reporters | 21 February 2024 • 

"A Trident nuclear missile misfired and crashed into the ocean near the submarine that launched it during a test last month, it has been reported."

"It is the second misfire in a row,  with a test launch of a Trident missile by the Royal Navy off the coast of the US in June 2016 also reported to have been a failure."

"The missile’s first stage boosters did not ignite during a test launch by HMS Vanguard on January 30, and it fell into the ocean and sank, the Sun reported."

"Defense Secretary Grant Shapps and First Sea Lord Admiral Sir Ben Key were both on board the submarine during the test, according to the newspaper."

HOW HUMILIATING IN THE EXTREME! THE BIGGEST OF THE BIG BOSSES ONBOARD AND FAILURE!

The two failures brings into question British and AMERICAN nuclear deterrence reliability? Some serious consideration needs to be made of the possibility!
