Hermano...

Si me decís que estaban en la costa china, haciendo un poco de trabajo sucio, y de golpe los agarra una marea o algo que no tenían muy presente, bué...

Pero en sus propias costas... cheeeeeeeee!!!!

¿Estarían probando el nuevo piloto automático para reducir personal y sacar al navegante?

Cada vez me parece más sensato el almirante Parr...
 
Algo estaban haciendo por alli??? si!! practicando como encallar el sub y que un barquito que vale la centesima parte te saque del apuro!!!
En el vide se ve clarito la calentura del capitan, es el vapor que sale de la vela jajajajaja!!!!

Nuclear submarine HMS Astute runs aground off Skye



The HMS Astute submarine is believed to have been undergoing sea trials off Skye on Scotland's west coast

The Royal Navy's newest and largest attack submarine HMS Astute has run aground off Skye, the Ministry of Defence (MoD) has confirmed.

An eye-witness said the sub - described as the stealthiest ever built in the UK - appeared to have grounded.

A Ministry of Defence spokeswoman said: "This is not a nuclear incident.

"We are responding to the incident and can confirm that there are no injuries to personnel and the submarine remains watertight."

The spokeswoman added: "There is no indication of any environmental impact."

The Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA) was alerted to the incident at about 0819 BST and confirmed it had grounded.

A spokesman said: "We have sent a coastguard tug to where the submarine ran aground on rocks at the Kyle of Lochalsh near the Skye bridge.

"It will stand by and monitor what will be going on. We think on the rising tide, at around 1800 BST, there should be some movement of the vessel."

A Royal Navy helicopter has also been at the scene.



Eye-witness Ross McKerlich said the submarine was about a mile from his home and appeared slightly tilted.

He said: "When I woke up this morning and looked out my bedroom window I could see the submarine.

"I am very surprised how far in it has come as there are good navigational buoys there."

Mr McKerlich added: "There was a helicopter hovering over the top - it's now gone back and there are two Naval vessels from the local base, Kyle of Lochalsh, standing off to the north of her.

Eye-witness Ross McKerlich describes the attempts to rescue the listing submarine

"Earlier in the day they did have ropes and they were trying to tow but now the tide has gone back and they're just standing off."

Martin Douglas, a former nuclear submarine engineer, said a concern for the crew was the provision of sea water to the boat's reactor.

He said: "The sea provides the primary cooling for the reactor system.

"There are many, many levels of back up systems, but they may have to find some interesting ways of getting sea water supply to the reactor."

Mr Douglas said the skipper and crew were highly trained to deal with extreme situations.

But he added that as the tide dropped more HMS Astute would be on display and secrets of its propulsion revealed.

HMS Astute, built by BAE Systems in Barrow in Furness, Cumbria, is believed to have been undergoing sea trials as it is not expected to enter service until next year.

A look around the Astute's control room

Aside from attack capabilities, it is able to sit in waters off the coast undetected, delivering the UK's special forces where needed or even listening to mobile phone conversations.

The 39,000 acoustic panels which cover its surface mask its sonar signature, meaning it can sneak up on enemy warships and submarines alike, or lurk unseen and unheard at depth.

The submarine can carry a mix of up to 38 Spearfish heavyweight torpedoes and Tomahawk Land Attack Cruise missiles, able to target enemy submarines, surface ships and land targets, while its sonar system has a range of 3,000 nautical miles.

Speaking to the BBC last month, HMS Astute's commanding officer, Commander Andy Coles, said: "We have a brand new method of controlling the submarine, which is by platform management system, rather than the old conventional way of doing everything of using your hands.

"This is all fly-by-wire technology including only an auto pilot rather than a steering column."



Submarine HMS Trafalgar sustained millions of pounds worth of damage when it ran aground off Skye in 2002.

Two senior commanders were reprimanded after admitting that their negligence caused the incident.

The sea around Skye and the island of Raasay is used as a training ground for the Royal Navy.
 
Desconozco como se navega un submarino y como dicen por ahi, esos capitanes tienen experiencia especialmente en sus aguas, por ese motivo es de extrañar como encallo, o si realmente encallo o algo fallo en el contro del submarino?. No creo que nos enteremos la verdad, aunque sea simple porque a los britones esta situacion los llenara de verguenza!. Buen finde!!

Ya fue sacado a las 18Hrs local ( hace unas siete horas que posteo esto, es decir, alrededor de las 11 de la mañana en Chile) por el remolcador Anglian Prince

BBC News - Grounded nuclear sub dragged free

el buque esta integro estructuralmente, sin vias de agua ni perdidas de ningun tipo, lo remolcan a aguas mas profundas para revisar el casco y derivas..

Sobre el accidente en si, hay docenas de razones, pero la mas probable que se me ocurre sin mas informacion es que el Oficial de Guardia se descuido con el abatimiento o deriva , ya sea a causa de viento ( si venia en la superficie) o corrientes...en aguas restringidas suele ser causa de mas de algun bochorno, sobre todo cuando se esta a punto de llegar a puerto y "ya se termino la pega" por lo que la gente se relaja...

Saludos,

Sut

Por lo que se ve en las imágenes de video que alguien subió, está muuuuy cerca de la costa, casi que se puede llegar nadando, sino hicieran esos fríos de Octubre por ahí arriba. ¿Qué hacían tan cerca de la costa? ¿Habrá bajado la marea muy de repente?:banghead:

Otra: ¿Porqué sale humo blanco de uno de los mástiles? ¿Mataron al capitán y se pusieron a deliberar un rato para ver quien pasaba al frente y esa es la señal de "habemus capitanium"?:smilielol5::smilielol5::smilielol5:

Última: ¿Este era el buque que podía detectar un carguero saliendo del puerto de New York desde el Canal de La Mancha?:nopity::nopity:
