Quick Facts History, United Kingdom ...

Bulldog, named after the Second World War B-class destroyer HMS Bulldog (H91), which escorted convoys in the Atlantic, was chosen to represent operations in the North Atlantic. Bulldog captured a German Enigma machine and associated codebooks that were on board U-boat U-110. Its capture enabled British intelligence to decipher German naval messages.[8] The plan for the Type 31 project envisages all five units of the class being in service by February 2030.[9]
