A botched super glue repair to an £88 million Trident submarine that could have had led to a disaster at sea has been slammed by top Navy officials, it is reported.
Civilians said to be carrying out work on HMS Vanguard – repairs that started in 2015 – reportedly glued some bolts back, that held insulation in place, on to essential cooling pipes, that had been sheared off through over-tightening.
Technicians working on the sub were said to have stuck the heads back on rather than boring out the broken shafts.
