The construction of the casing was of a glass fibre and alloy except in the case of the Otter which was reinforced with steel which allowed her to carry out the role of 'Target Boat'.

Since the restructuring of the contract in February 2003, good progress has been made on the build of ASTUTE and the programme is on track to meet the revised In-Service date. MOD and BAE Systems remain committed to delivering the first of three ASTUTE boats by 2009.
