-Neviston-

A new attack submarine is discreetly launched in to Neviston Harbor at night. She is the IKN Trident, an advanced new fast attack submarine intended to supplement the Pittshaven class. She is also intended as a counter to the German Type XXIV, which is estimated to have superior combat abilities to the Pittshaven. Whilst somewhat smaller than the Pittshaven, Trident is more heavily armed, packing 36 torpedo tubes, and 64 missiles. The Trident is also faster and more agile, giving her a distinct combat edge.

The submarine slips out to sea for trials, and is recorded at 116 knots submerged. A Pittshaven sent to follow Trident is unable to keep pace, and an old Ewe-11 class submarine takes over, though it is also often outpaced. The sub's stealth systems prove effective, however at high speed the acoustic phasing is unable to compensate for all noise, allowing the sub to be tracked. The boat is considered a success, allowing more to be commissioned.
