Horse Sand Fort

This is one more British submarine base and fort that the Royal Commission used in the past. Horse Sand Fort is a sea fort located in the strait of Solent in Portsmouth, England. Originally intended to be a part of the Palmerston Forts, it was used by the British during the Second World War as it was heavily equipped with sophisticated weapons and submarine defenses. The iron-armor gates and walls and layers of concrete and granite were great. It was purchased by AmaZing Venues with the intention of turning it into a museum.

Puget Sound Naval Shipyard and Intermediate Maintenance Facility is a U.S. Navy shipyard located in the state of Washington. It has been in operation since 1891 under a ship-submarine recycling program.

The shipyard comes with a reserve fleet should the Navy ever need them. Sometimes called the PSNS, this is the only shipyard facility in the country that is certified to recycle nuclear ships.
