I publish analysis about subs, other naval matters, nuclear weapons and broad political issues. Unlike most advanced countries Australian submarine changes are very slow. The first Collins LOTE may be limited to optronic masts (?) and only ready in 2030 (?). Triumphant Trump may decide to cancel Biden's "Democrat" AUKUS Virginia offer because the US Navy needs all operational SSNs right through to the 2040s. My colleagues Shawn C and Gessler are excellent writers. Pete

Christmas in Australia 2015
Australia's Christmas (being Southern Hemisphere) is the hottest time of year. Temperatures average around 30ºC (86ºF) during the day and 17ºC (63ºF) at night. Christmas feasts are frequently at midday on December 25 and often seafood (especially prawns/shrimp on the barbie), ham and turkey, duck or black swan (yummy :)

Japan’s iconic food in Xmas is Kentucky Fried Chicken. I cannot send KFC, so I introduce a video of 212A submarine (U-31) as a Xmas present. It is German, but still very interesting. https://www.ndr.de/fernsehen/sendungen/die_nordstory/Die-Orkanfahrt-von-U-31,sendung447848.html
