The Royal Navy still maintains a decent enough attack submarine force. Those supertugs could easily be Belgrano’d, if they tried something like this.

To think that a heavy cruiser that survived the Pearl Harbor attack & WWII, and served more than thirty years in the Argentine navy, got deep-sixed in less than ten minutes after being torpedoed by a British sub. That was more than three decades ago.

Maybe the Argie supertugs will carry depth charges. /s
