'Near the ground' as in by the coast? Surely, the 'ground' in the middle of the sea is called the sea bed, and if a submarine were to end up stuck on the sea bed I would suggest that it had sunk rather than 'run aground'.
So just how long will SUBLOOK take without a LRMPA to assist in the looking?
Hand grenade, pin, throw, run....

Global warming/climate change is supposed to be causing sea levels to rise. Sea Levels rising = less chance of running aground, or perhaps not?
I don't own this space under my name. I should have leased it while I still could

When I read the headline "Nuclear sub aground off Scotland", my mind immediately thought of that incident in Swedish(?) waters.
I thought this may be the Nimrods salvation, but no, it wasn't Russian, one of ours.......

I'm not going to die in a ditch over this, just putting it out there...
You can get underwater reefs in the middle of the ocean . It also covers other situations such as a fire etc... sorry BAe have already done that.

MR4 Tasking? not required I'm afraid
could use its radar to locate them and then it could use its radios to relay their position to the tug
No need to sweep the inner sound to find them!
