Was doing some searching on the forums for something else and this thread came up.
The Astute v Virginia question was answered in 2012. The winner being HMS Astute. During the exercises HMS Astute Commanded by Cdr Iain Breckenridge (formerly CO of HMS Tireless & XO on HMS Superb) had many American dignitaries onboard. Quote:
