历史记录
In June 2011 the submarine ran aground during manoeuvres off Vancouver Island - this vessel struck the bottom of the ocean off B.C.’s coast. Two submariners were slightly injured. As of July 2014, Corner Brook began her Extended Docking Work Period (EDWP).
In 2019 Corner Brook is in its Extended Docking Work Period under the aegis of the Victoria In-Service Support Contract. It is being done at CFB Esquimalt in British Columbia. A fire broke out while it was docked in August 2019. Last spring, while it was in the care of maintenance contractor Babcock Canada, one of the vessel’s ballast tanks was ruptured.
In 2021 this vessel was returned to the water and is expected to return to full service in 2022.
