Barrow Shipbuilding Company : ウィキペディア英語版
Vickers Shipbuilding and Engineering

Vickers Shipbuilding and Engineering, Ltd (VSEL) was a shipbuilding company based at Barrow-in-Furness, Cumbria in northwest England that built warships, civilian ships, submarines and armaments. The company was historically the Naval Construction Works of Vickers Armstrongs and has a heritage of building large naval warships and armaments. Through a complicated history the company's shipbuilding division is now BAE Systems Submarine Solutions and the armaments division is now part of BAE Systems Land and Armaments.
==History==

The Company was founded in 1871 by James Ramsden as the Iron Shipbuilding Company, but its name was soon changed to Barrow Shipbuilding Company.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The history of Shipbuilding in the North East )
In 1897, ''Vickers & Sons'' bought the ''Barrow Shipbuilding Company'' and its subsidiary the ''Maxim Nordenfelt Guns and Ammunition Company'', becoming ''Vickers, Sons and Maxim, Limited''.〔('Armour Plate Planing Shop', 1902 ) Ingenious〕 The shipyard at Barrow became the Naval Construction Yard. In 1911 the company was renamed ''Vickers Ltd'', and in 1927 became ''Vickers Armstrongs Ltd'' after a merger with Armstrong Whitworth, whose shipyard at High Walker on the River Tyne became the "Naval Yard".
In 1955 the name of the shipbuilding division changed to ''Vickers Armstrongs Shipbuilders, Ltd'' and changed again in 1968 to ''Vickers Limited Shipbuilding Group''.〔(Waymarks: BAe Systems Barrow )〕
The shipbuilding group was nationalised under the Aircraft and Shipbuilding Industries Act in 1977 and subsumed into British Shipbuilders.〔
The ex-Vickers yard at Barrow was the first shipyard of the British Shipbuilders group to return to the private sector. It was sold in March 1986 to an employee-led company, VSEL Consortium, which also included its Birkenhead-based subsidiary, Cammell Laird. The company was floated on the London Stock Exchange in December 1986.〔(Actuaries Index 1987 )〕
In 1994 VSEL was subject to two takeover proposals, one from GEC〔(GEC makes rival bid for VSEL ) The Independent, 29 October 1994〕 and another from British Aerospace (BAe).〔(Cash-in ahead at VSEL: Cambridge don stands to gain nearly £1m from bid for shipyard ) The Independent, 2 October 1994〕 VSEL was willing to participate in a merger with a larger company to reduce its exposure to cycles in warship production, particularly following the "Options for Change" defence review after the end of the Cold War. Both bids were referred to the Monopolies and Mergers Commission (MMC) which issued its conclusions and advice to government in May 1995.〔(BAe fuels VSEL hopes in cash call for VSEL ) The Independent, 31 March 1995〕 BAe's bid was approved, while the MMC concluded (with two of 6 members dissenting) that GEC's bid was likely to "operate against the public interest".〔(Parliamentary debates ) Hansard, 23 May 1995〕 However it was GEC's bid that was approved and accepted by VSEL.〔(GEC's knockout bid wins fight for VSEL ) Jane's, 1995〕
Following GEC's purchase VSEL became ''Marconi Marine (VSEL)'', part of the company's GEC-Marconi division. With the merger of British Aerospace and GEC's defence business - Marconi Electronic Systems - VSEL passed to the resulting company, BAE Systems as part of BAE Systems Marine. In 2003 it became an independent division known as BAE Systems Submarines after BAE systems split its ship and submarine building operations. This was renamed BAE Systems Submarine Solutions in January 2007.〔(BAe Systems Submarine Solutions )〕
