		HM/S Splendid was also the first Royal Navy submarine to fire a TLAM in anger, when in 1999 she was called to the gulf to support UN/NATO operations against Iraq when the latter broke the conditions of its previous surrender.

		The Tomahawk-armed attack submarine (SSN) HMS Turbulent (S87) has also been diverted to join the task group, having deployed east of the Suez last summer in support of the War on Terrorism.
		When this magazine visited a British naval task group, led by HMS Invincible, up-threat in 1999, the Silkworm launchers were being kept under observation but, as the Iraqis were keeping their search radars turned off, British and American strike jets were leaving them alone.
		Now the Americans are destroying the batteries because, in the words of a US Central Command spokesman, they are “threatening coalition maritime forces.” The decision to start eliminating the Silkworm threat is seen as a necessary precaution ahead of deployment into the Gulf of the armada assembled by America and Britain.
