About the event
'Submarines are decisive force projection and sea denial
platforms, whose numbers, utility and impact look set to increase as
geo-strategic competition re-emerges and irregular activity grows at sea in the
coming years. Developed states have failed to invest sufficiently in the
skills and technologies necessary to counter a wide range of modern submarines
and mini-submarines, with the result that even modest submarine capabilities
are likely to pose significant threats, both to the international system and to
naval and other expeditionary forces.'
