How are waters around Britain patrolled against Russian submarines, what role does Ireland play, and could Type 31 purchases help?
Short answerA reliable answer requires careful planning against public-domain information because live anti-submarine operations may involve sensitive knowledge.
NotesThe question links patrols around Britain against Russian submarines with Ireland's role and possible Type 31 purchases. A detailed answer would require checking what is already in the public domain. Current operations demand care because analysts may possess different levels of access and must avoid disclosing sensitive material. Any public account must separate open evidence from protected knowledge before explaining live anti-submarine activity.
