A Huge Explosion! French Submarine Weapon Hits Hull of Sea Patrol Vessel with New F21 Heavy Torpedo

Armament | The new F21 heavy torpedo

A French Navy nuclear attack submarine fired a F21 heavy torpedo at the hull of the former high-seas patrol boat Premier maître L'Her, which had previously been decontaminated. This firing, carried out in conditions close to those encountered in operations, confirms new capabilities for the Navy's submarines. It made it possible to test the capacity of the F21 torpedo, designed to equip the Rubis and Suffren class SSNs, as well as nuclear ballistic missile submarines!
