Good to know the tens of billions we are spending on a nuclear deterrent is worth it.
the missile simply splashed into the ocean: “It left the submarine but it just went plop, right next to them.”
This was the second test in a row that failed. The last one was in 2016, so they had a bit of time to work out the issue and get it right.

Grant Shapps was present at the time the test took place.
