“During construction, work on the submarine was delayed due to a labour strike.[9] Upholder commissioned into the Royal Navy on 7 December 1990.[8] Her commissioning was delayed due to a problem with the operation of the torpedo tubes, which had to be welded closed to prevent sea water entering the submarine.”>

The sub should be subject to the “Lemon Law”. “Construction delayed due to a strike” — right there you have a problem.
