HM Submarine Ocelot, 1962
Launched in 1962 Ocelot was the last warship to be built at the Dockyard for the Royal Navy. It is preserved to commemorate the Dockyard's 20th century role as a builder of submarines. Between 1907 and 1966 fifty-seven submarines were constructed here and many more repaired and refitted.
Three further Oberon class submarines were built at Chatham after Ocelot for the Royal Canadian Navy, with the last, HMCS Okanagan , being launched in 1966.
Ocelot served as a patrol submarine during the Cold War until 1991 when she was decommissioned. Acquired by Chatham Historic Dockyard Trust from the Royal Navy in 1992, today visitors can go on board and get a feeling of what life was like as a submariner.
Visits are by timed tours booked at the Information Point.
