The Cold War was a period of intense activity for Royal Navy submarines, with many hair-raising incidents involving Soviet ships. They were involved in frequent dangerous surveillance patrols to reconnoitre Soviet submarines and surface warships and their operational tactics, tracking Soviet strategic submarines (SSBNs), conducting British SSBN patrols as a deterrent and protecting these patrols with attack submarines (SSNs). There were also dangerous patrols in which the use of submarines under the Arctic ice cap was tested. In addition, there were deployments in other conflicts and theatres of war such as the Falklands War, the Suez campaign, the Northern Ireland conflict and the confrontation with Indonesia. The author presents the entire history of this crucial era in a fully illustrated volume containing black and white and colour pictures, technical drawings and maps. He has interviewed submarine commanders and engineers from the Cold War era, submitted Freedom of Information requests and trawled the National Archives, the archives of the Royal Navy Submarine Museum and the Imperial War Museum, as well as analysing personal accounts of senior officers and numerous secondary sources to bring to light new information, published here for the first time.
