Royal Arcerion Submarine Service: Difference between revisions

The '''Royal Arcerion Submarine Service (RASS)''', the [[Royal Arcerion Submarine Service|Submarine Service]], often referred to as the 'Silent Service' is a major offensive and sea denial component in the Arcer security strategy. It is comprised of two classes of diesel-electric submarines, and was founded in 1917 with the adoption of the first submarines into the [[Royal Arcerion Naval Service|Arcer Navy]]. All of Arcerion's submarines are considered SSNs, or fleet attack submarines, designed to operate in the Malentine and Songun Seas, with a limited ability to conduct power projection operations into the Polynesian Sea through the Songun Straits. The Submarine Service also has the capability to conduct sea lane denial, using torpedoes, undersea-launched cruise missiles, and various types of sea mines. Submarines also operate on conjunction with the [[Arcerion Special Operations Command]] (ASOC), to insert and extract special operations teams, conduct strategic reconnaissance and gather signals and electronic intelligence using advanced sensor suites. The Submarine Service maintains an excellent relationship with ASOC due to historical ties and joint operations during the [[Second Great War]]. They are also capable of using their integral land-attack cruise missiles in a conventional first-strike capability against a peer opponent.
