We have no secure energy, no secure fuel, diesel, no merchant navy, no reliable overseas suppliers, no nuclear power stations, no nuclear technology and engineering capacity, no maintenance and supply capacity - but we will have nuclear submarined in 15 years.


Australia's naive folly goes on and on and on.

Australia is a rich but totally unserious country.

Certainly Trump has brought morality to business and electoral activity. He has almost no jail time and is honourable in acquiring Venezuala, Gaza, Greenland and now Iran.  Thank goodness we can see he has the idea of honour among thieves. He has Jasin in his grip.

Absolutely insane. For 1 % of the cost we could have 100 un manned, small drone subs parked on the ocean floor all over the pacific with a warhead and we could activate them at will from a laptop in Sydney.
That's the future of subs.


No you can't, because no signal would reach that deep.

When the Ragnarok project starts Aukus subs will be better bet then land based bunkers.

Prolly the drone can be programmed to surface at a specific location for sat data, and the next cycle.
' spot beams or optical laser communications, provides significantly higher throughput, better security, and lower latency [time-lag] compared to traditional, broad-coverage satellite beams'
