@harteofscotland: Deadly Submarine attack 2nd May 1982. Deep beneath the freezing waters of the South Atlantic, a British submarine waited in silence. Its name was HMS Conqueror… and it had one target in its sights: the Argentine cruiser ARA General Belgrano. The order came. Fire. Three torpedoes raced through the darkness. Two slammed into the Belgrano, ripping the ageing warship apart. Within minutes, she was doomed. As the cruiser slipped beneath the waves, 323 Argentine sailors lost their lives, making it the deadliest single incident of the Falklands War. The sinking sent shockwaves around the world and sparked political controversy that continues to this day. But militarily, its impact was immediate—the Argentine Navy withdrew its surface fleet, leaving the Royal Navy in control of the seas. And to this day, HMS Conqueror remains the only nuclear-powered submarine ever to sink an enemy warship in combat.” #falklandswar#royalnavy #foryou #militaryhistory #submarine

The crew did their job, impeccably. Recently a nuclear Uk sub was under water for 6 months! Imagine that? The crew were actually under water for 6 months continuously.mostly young men and women.my nephew was one of them.

I have letters from John Fieldhouse, the Second Sea Lord at the time, who would have given the order, written to my father at the time. He praised Terry Lewin, the First Sea Lord, for ‘keeping the politicians of my back’ and letting him get on and fight the war.

It was the only nuclear powered submarine to sink an enemy ship until very recently. the Americans sunk an Iranian ship a few months ago
