British nuclear missile test fails and crashes into sea

A recent Royal Navy test of the missile that carries Britain's nuclear deterrent failed within seconds, it has emerged, raising new questions about the deterrent's viability at a time of elevated #nuclear tensions.

First revealed by the Sun newspaper, the US-manufactured #Trident missile was launched from the #submarine HMS #Vanguard off the east coast of the US.

However, instead of flying the planned thousands of miles before coming down in the southern Atlantic Ocean, it crashed into the sea near the launch site.

So, the #UK's #Trident missile test fired from a Royal Navy #submarine failed, for the second time in a row. These missiles, which can carry #nuclear war heads, are key to the UK's supposed nuclear deterrent ability.

I enjoyed hearing the military man on the radio this morning, explaining how failing to launch these #phallic symbols happens to everyone. OK, he didn't say phallic. But he might as well have.
