There is an excellent article What's
The Real Cost of Australia's Submarine Capability? by senior analyst, Marcus
Hellyer, for Australian Strategic Policy Institute's (ASPI's) THE
STRATEGIST website. Here he comments on the sheer complexity of costing
Australia's current Collins-class submarine program and the more than $1 Billion already
spent on Australia's future Attack-class submarines.
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.
