Vickers and Barrow are names synonymous with the development of the submarine. Hundreds of submarines covering virtually every class have been built for the Royal Navy and foreign Navies. This site is dedicated to not only to those who have served on Her Majesty's Submarines but also to those employees past and present whose skills and efforts have given pride to the phrase 'Barrow built' and made the name Vickers known and respected throughout the world.

Highly under appreciated large scale production. Superb photography, and effects involved in Submarine, Warship, Missile attacks; with well executed choreography for a covert mission to a Russian naval base, to rescue the Russian President, who has been captured by a Russian minister, with his military team, intending to orchestrate a nuclear war between the US and Russia.
Gerard Butler is always worth watching (Den of Thieves, Greenland, The Vanishing, to name three) and the supporting cast are convincing, rather than mainly "set furniture"; although Gary Oldman spends a lot of his screen time just shouting and running across the sets.
