With a pod after 1970, what events would it take for the UK gov't to put a minimal fleet of 4 Poseidon armed SSBN's into service for the Royal Navy either as a replacement of the "R" boats or an expansion of the deterrent force?
Bonus points if you can also give a name to the class (my own eg "Endeavour" class) or give a rough outline of the SSBN class itself, for example I'm thinking of a class of sub's based on a lengthened "Swiftsure" class.
Would this be possible?
