1969 Resolution class nuclear powered ballistic missile submarine of the Royal Navy

HMS Revenge (S27) was the fourth of the Royal Navy's ballistic missile submarines.

The four Resolution class submarines were ordered on 8 May 1963, with Revenge, the fourth of the class, laid down at Cammell Laird's Birkenhead shipyard on 19 May 1965. Construction of the two submarines being built at Lairds (Revenge and ) was much slower than planned, with poor performance by Cammell Laird and in particular its workers to blame. At one stage the Ministry of Defence considered towing the unfinished submarines to Barrow in Furness for completion by Vickers Armstrongs.#tag:ref|The two submarines were known as "Gravy boats" by the workforce as they were seen as "easy money".

Revenge was 425 feet (130 m) long overall and 360 feet (110 m) between perpendiculars, with a beam of 33 feet (10 m) and a draught of 30 feet (9 m). Displacement was surfaced and submerged. A PWR1 pressurised water reactor, designed and built by Rolls Royce fed steam to geared steam turbines, with the machinery rated at , giving a speed of submerged and surfaced. A diesel engine provided auxiliary power. and each missile could carry three nuclear warheads. Defensive armament consisted of six torpedo tubes. She was marked for disposal in 1992. She is currently being stored pending the identification of a disposal solution for all of the UK's decommissioned nuclear submarines, at Rosyth Dockyard, on the northern shore of the Firth of Forth. She is docked down for maintenance and re preservation approximately every 12 years.
