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.

India’s INS Arihant SSBN compared to US Ohio-class SSBNs
"The very choice of JT Ship Service Tomasz Jatkowski from Gdynia to repair the MGK-400 complex is not surprising. It was with this company that two contracts were concluded in December 2019 regarding the submarine ORP "Orzeł" for about PLN 624 thousand gross, under which six sets of power cables were to be supplied (for PLN 72,000 gross) and repair of PZKG-11 periscopes (for PLN 552,000 gross)."
"Experience shows that JT Ship Service Tomasz Jatkowski will definitely do its job and restore the main sonar system of the ship to working order. However, it will still be a hydroacoustic complex from the eighties, without a modern sound analysis system and connection to a new, automated combat system."

Hi Pete,
It seems that time has left its mark on the Polish submarines ORP "Orzeł" - not modernization but repair
