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.

The whereabouts of a Barrow built submarine sunk during the First World War has remained a mystery for nine decades. The AE1 submarine, built by Vickers Armstrong for the Royal Australian Navy, disappeared on September 14, 1914, just three months into the war, with the loss of 35 crew members. The tragedy came the day after the submarine had helped to capture what was then German New Guinea, now Papua New Guinea
In the near future a French Submarine find’s itself in a global crisis when a group of terrorists steal a submarine and simulate a nuclear attack,
Commandant Grandchamp and his expert acoustic analysts must defy their own governments orders amid high-stake international tensions and battle to save the world from apocalypse.
