The Astute class equips the UK Royal Navy with its largest and most powerful fleet of attack submarines.
BAE Systems released the news of the ongoing construction phase of the fifth Astute-class submarine on its social media account. Astute class submarines stand out in the UK in many different ways.

The Astute class are the largest and most advanced attack submarines ever built for the Royal Navy. Astute leads the way with many technological ‘firsts’ – the first Royal Navy Submarine not to be fitted with optical periscopes (instead high specification video technology is used to scan the horizon) and the class are the quietest ever made.
HMS Audacious

Equipped with world-leading sensors, the Astute-class carry both Tomahawk Land Attack Cruise Missiles (TLAM) and Spearfish heavyweight torpedoes. Measuring 97 meters in length the boats can circumnavigate the globe submerged, producing their own oxygen and drinking water. As well as Astute BAE Systems are also constructing the Dreadnought class submarine which will replace the Barrow-built Vanguard-class submarines to maintain the UK’s continuous at sea deterrent (CASD).

HMS Artful
  • Astute class submarines are the UK’s largest and most powerful attack submarines and can strike at targets up to 1,000km from the coast with pin-point accuracy.
  • Astute submarines are the first nuclear submarines to be designed entirely in a three-dimensional, computer-aided environment.
  • An Astute submarine’s 90-day dived endurance is only limited by the amount of food that can be carried and the endurance of the crew.
