All the British military and political officials present turned pale without exception.
The "Avenger" carries the hope of the Empire regaining control of the Mediterranean, and there can be no mistakes. As a result, it fell apart on its maiden voyage...
Admiral Jervis just left with a simple "Submit the report to me," then turned to enter the cabin.
Sandler, representing the Bolton-Watt Company at the maiden voyage ceremony, was also extremely nervous at this time, fearing that components like the steam pressure gauge and safety valve set aside as "back doors" had problems prematurely.
Currently, Britain has only completed the construction of 17 light steam warships, so if an exposure happens now, the impact on the British Navy would be very limited.
At the same time, he himself might also be investigated by the British intelligence department.
He quickly pretended to be concerned about the warship, following several investigators from the Navy Department onto the "Avenger".
