	Upholder class submarine
		The Upholder-class submarines were diesel-electric hunter-killer (SSK) submarines designed in the late 1970s to supplement the Royal Navy's nuclear submarine force.
		Top speed matched any comparable SSK class and could be sustained for some 90 minutes.
		It was highly automated to reduce manning, and the weapon-discharge system that controlled the operations of the torpedo tubes could, under certain conditions, open the torpedo tube slide valve while the rear door was open.

		The vessels, of which the first is scheduled to enter service in 2012, will provide the Canadian Navy with a much-needed replacement of the now-37-year-old PROTECTEUR class auxiliary replenishment vessels.
		The PROTECTEUR class is nearing the end of its serviceable lifespan, with the HMCS PROTECTEUR finishing its final major refit of its operational life this year.
		The requirement for three vessels, instead of a one-for-one replacement of the current two vessel fleet, will provide the Navy with a much-needed “swing-vessel”, not seen since the decommissioning of the HMCS PROVIDER auxiliary replenishment vessel in the late 1990s, thereby permitting smooth operations when one of the new JSS vessels is in dry-dock.
