Presenting the new nuclear-powered attack submarine of the Royal Navy: the Astute class.

This is a viewport render of the 3D model, not as the finished product will appear in the game itself.
 
Finally, a British unit! You sir have made my game-related morning! Now all I need is a Type 45! ;)
 
i was gonna say that it looks kind of stubby, but then i googled the real one, yup looks just like it!! i guess for the RN its function over looks! :p

I happen to think it looks quite good for a 97m (318ft) long SSN. :eek:

I meant to ask, given that air bases will exist in game, will the ability to destroy them using cruise missiles be available?

You got this idea from red storm rising!!!

No I didn't, it's a pretty reasonable tactic and is a logical use of cruise missiles. I had considered this use of them in the context of the Falklands war, when we didn't have Tomahawk equipped subs. I've only just started the book as it happens. :p
