I was just listening to radio 4 in the car ("Food in Extreme Places: The Submarine") and they were saying that the Morgan Motor Car Company made the Captain's chair for the submarine HMS Artful, an Astute-class submarine. Apparently it is a tradition to get car manufacturers to design and make the Captain's chairs. I have tried to find a photo but failed.

I think that is Cmdr Peter Green, pictured on his seat in the control room of HMS Ambush.
I think the picture below may be more accurate....

Interesting
I wonder why this wasn't released as PR ?
