For the first time since 2016, the United Kingdom will carry out a test launch of a submarine nuclear rocket in the Atlantic Ocean.
About it reports The Telegraph.
Shipping companies were warned that the tests would be conducted when the HMS Vanguard submarine arrived in the Atlantic Ocean.
The test that will be involved in a nuclear charge will be involved, will take place until February 4, approximately 90 km from the east coast of Florida with a radius of 5 900 km.
The last United Kingdom tested nuclear weapons in 2016.
Although such tests are planned in advance and they are not a direct answer to geopolitical activity, they occur against the background of exacerbation of the crisis in the Red Sea.
Earlier this week, the British Defense Minister Grant Shappps met with his American colleague Lloyd Austin to discuss events in the region and ways to overcome common threats.
