Ooops a bit of bad driving...

 

The government slashing the military the next day someone parks the latest Attack Sub on a Rock...

 

Hmmm coincidence ???

It's so stealthy they've lost their own position.

 

Aside from attack capabilities, it is able to sit in waters off the coast undetected

The "undedected" part didn't work that well, did it?

 

This is all fly-by-wire technology including only an auto pilot rather than a steering column

One wrong click and you're in Vladivostok instead of La Rochelle.

Seems like the RN should stay the hell away from Skye. The place has a knack for catching ships.
