according to the Beeb the guy was on duty and asked to go to the bog (or "heads" as we submariners say)

 

Because of all the visitors he was told he couldn't so he went out and came back shooting

 

Somnat very wrong with that ship

pedants - it floats (some of the time) - this oen has spent most of its life in dock or on a sandbank TBH - perhaps "Pier" would be a better word

I've been on the V-Class subs and they're nothing like the old diesel boats, I can only assume the Astute is even bigger and better equipped. By all accounts this kid shouldn't have been a submariner in the first place, getting upset at having to do 2-3 three short tours consecutively is what caused the shooting or so the papers say - however, the tours they've been doing are no more than 45 days a pop which is nothing compared to what they can/used to be apparently.
