The misadventures of AUKUS robot AlboGov never cease. I publish on subs, other naval,
nuclear weapons & broad political issues. Aussie sub changes are glacial: talk rather than actual new subs. The 1st Collins LOTE may secretly concern the US Combat System & be ready 2029. Trump may decide to cancel the AUKUS Virginia offer due to USN advice it needs all operational SSNs right through to the 2040s. My colleagues Shawn C and Gessler are excellent writers. Pete.

Submarine Matters Quiet Due to Fires in Australia
Due to fires in Australia SubMatts will be quiet for time being.
That's a dumb idea. I think Antarctica is a better choice. NO SMOKE. I got to visit resus at RPAH 23rd December despite I'm healthy, smoke caused heart sac inflammation. I had exerted myself for 10 hours over the two previous days in hazardous smoke. Plus many hours over the preceding months.
Hey Pete What's your take on this. Looks like Argentina is interested in buying the Ula class SSK from Norway

"* Monash University researchers have developed the world’s most efficient lithium-sulphur battery, capable of powering a smartphone for five continuous days.
* Prototype cells have been developed in Germany. Further testing in cars and solar grids to take place in Australia in 2020.
* Researchers have a filed patent on the manufacturing process, and will capture a large share of Australia’s lithium chain."

All the best for you and hope everything works out ok! Take care,
Cheers, Alex.
Hi Pete,
Hope you are safe from the fires, maybe Australia should put in their own Li-S batteries in their new submarines, Supercharging tomorrow: Australia first to test new lithium batteries

Good luck!!
Stay safe and best of luck!
Thanks everyone for your support.
As the fires threatening my area of Australia have slowed down (though are still burning) I aim to write 2 or 3 articles this week.
Regards
Pete
