[HIGHLIGHTS] Trident “plops” into the sea: British Navy embarrasses itself with nuclear missile test

Trident “plops” into the sea: British Navy embarrasses itself with nuclear missile test. It is the second failed missile test of Great Britain's nuclear deterrent system in a row.

An “anomaly” occurred during the missile test on January 30th, as British Defense Secretary Grant Shapps admitted on February 21st. The missile reportedly fell into theSea not far from the submarine that fired it. Nevertheless, people in London said they had “absolute trust” in the deterrent system.
