This one "looks British", probably Queen Elizabeth Class.
Might be HMS Warspite, although some details don't fit exactly:

Yeah, now I see that it's almost certainly one of the Queen Elizabeth class.

Man, I've suspected it for years, but those pictures are unequivocal proof. The British Navy is staffed by people who just plain hate civilians

Bad drills Jim, you know you should be heading under asap, or at least showing your front profile...

However, we all like to showboat, I hope it worked for you (it never does for me )

Hi,

some screenshots from my last patrols form Penang: dark night in the indic ocean:



This supplier will never reach reach aircraft carriers in the eastern theatre:



What a kind of Malhalla: a japanese Task Force west of the Nicobare Islands:


Strange kind of subs in Penang - a Sen Toku Class:



Although it takes more than 65 days to travell from France to Penag - it is a wonderful journey.

Greetings

Hi rowi58,

Looks great!
Very realistic!
Is there a chance to see this submarine into the sea?
