Was just reading about it this morning. When you get the whole can't guarantee the safety of the crew, well, the Iroquis is next in line to get an honorable torpedoing at seas.
It does leave us with one Command and Control ship in a fleet that has serious resupply issues. On top of that 4 of the 12 Halifax Class Frigates are in various stages of their half life refit.
out of the 4 Victoria Class Submarines, only one is certified to dive to its expected depth and be able to use its weapons systems.
Right now if we needed the Navy to deploy it couldn't.

There is one frigate in the Black Sea right now to support NATO with Ukraine right? The recent military procurement strategy paper really surprised me when it stated that they plan to retrofit and upgrade the Victoria Class subs, I figured those were heading out to pasture.
