Summary[edit]

Description
English: A new submarine jetty is delivered by tugs to HMNB Clyde, Scotland to form tthe accommodation for the Royal Navy's next generation of nuclear submarines.

Although the jetty can house any type of submarine, it was designed with the RN's new Astute class vessel in mind.

The Valiant Jetty has been five years in the planning, five years in build, and is designed to serve the Royal Navy’s submarines for the next 50 years.

The jetty will float up and down with the tide to provide significant operational benefits and is secured to the loch bottom by four giant piles, each one as big as Nelson’s Column.
