A trip through a SSBN

Kapitan · 03-03-19, 03:56 AM

A while back i did a trip to France, i went to a place called Cherbourg, during the trip i managed to get on the only publicly open nuclear missile submarine in the world the Le Redoutable, she served for 20 years as a missile carrier in France's nuclear deterrent.

Always fancied a look around her but was always too lazy to travel, even whilst residing in Holland.

Is this the French SSBN with the fancy officers lounge?

I think I remember this one ... they sure knew how to live.
