British nukes in the gulf?

Check it out: http://www.operations.mod.uk/telic/forces.htm. All the ships are named except the last one which just ambigiously says "plus a Fleet Submarine". Probably one of the nuclear subs I think :)

not forgetting melting boots on the sand, failing rifles, tanks failing etc etc

typical of our government not putting in money when/where needed.

Dude, this is the 21st century...our troops are going in packing "battlefield nukes" them own selves!

Honest, low-yield nuclear bombs are gonna be going in with the troops in case they "need to contain any biological attacks". :(

The only nuclear weapons the UK has is on the four nuclear submarines which carry American missiles. The RAF used to have those 400 kiloton WE-177 bombs, but the last of those were scrapped in 1998.
