Closing the GIUK Gap now

That was a 1960s proposal from McDonnell Douglas and has nothing whatsoever to do with the RN's current proposals.

I did not claim there was a relation - I am simply struggling with the need for a hypersonic manned interceptor in the context of the GIUK Gap.

The obvious title would be Project CABOT, at least to my mind, given that this forum tends to prefer naming threads for the projects they discuss. Perhaps Project CABOT: Type 92 UUV, Type 93 USV, and associated infrastructure to capture the platforms involved.

Oooh, seconded!
