Yes you do. Using American designed missles and reactors based off of American designs. And as fine a boat as the Vanguard is, it still is inferior to the Ohios.

I think America is at the forefront of submarine weapons and control systems, as well as submarine technology..... I got LG's back on this one....

I also forgot to mention that the British SSN force relies upon America for its land-attack capability, i.e. Tomahawks. The British have an excellent submarine force and some very capable commanders, but in terms of equipment, they do take a second seat to America.

I'm certainly not one to knock America's equipment, but I can tell you this about the personnel of the Royal Navy: They make excellent use of what they have (which, for the most part, is of great quality in it's own right.).

The USN submariners are good, but IMO (I've had the opportunity to work with both) the RN submariners are better.
Put British crews in American boats, and you'll have a submarine force that won't be stopped!

That I will agree with also. The Royal Navy has always had a reputation for the best crews in the world.
