At least the Brits got rid of their subs with the screen doors. Guess who bought them, because they were cheap? (Not REALLY cheap, but the cheapest sub that a LIEBERAL government could find.) Jean Chretien, the third worst Prime Mistake that Kanadahar (Canada) ever had, and his left wing government, approved the deal! The RN certainly saw Chetien and the 'Perfumed Princes' working at 101 Col By Drive, d'Ottawa, coming!

Now Kanadahar is the 'proud' possessor of four Upholder-class submarines (screen doors still intact). The first one didn't enter RCN service until June 2005, as repairs and rigging to GouvFedCan requirements needed to be completed.

Ummm....curious how the mandated bi-lingual submarine signage and instrument read-outs work out...or am I assuming that only two languages are required?

Not a whole lot of surface area available I would imagine.
