Spin", alleging that SWSC had been cut? out of the project since the late 1980s ?
"The links between the new submarine project and SWSC were renewed in the late 1990s, after the centre had been cut out of the project since the late 1980s when most of its senior staff left to join the companies involved in building the Rockwell system. The centre had quietly continued its work with the Oberons and responded with enthusiasm to assisting with the new submarines." (from the book
"Steel, Spies and Spin", Google books)
Doesn't make sense. What's the difference between "continuing its work with the Oberons" and "continuing its work with the new system" ? Either way, interoperability between Oberon and new system would occur.
(Big overlap in effector systems, for example both had same brand of cruise missiles and same brand of torpedoes)
Why wouldn't the sensor systems be interoperable ?
Why wouldn't your legacy simulator(s) possess Collins-like vehicles ?
So it look like someone who didn't know what he was talking about was feeding essentially disinformation to the book authors. Why would that be I wonder ?
