Thanks F-32 some lovely photos of them in refit, some work being done on the towed array feeder on the starboard (right) side.

 

All the best Chris

Interesting they're two different types, the older ones still had the planes on the fin while the 688i's were repositioned below the waterline.

Great photos.  Not sure MOD Plod would ever allow you to get that close to an Astute class in UK with a camera (especially the penultimate shot)

Ahhh, San Diego, it might be my favourite American city...….

 

Nice photo's.
