About subs, military/naval, missiles, nuclear weapons & politics. New Aussie subs have been just talk since 2009. Collins LOTE 2028-2040? of partial help. UUVs help more. POTUS may cancel AUKUS Virginias in 2031 as the USN needs all SSNs to the 2040s. Australian Gov ignores US higher priority to Columbia SSBNs (one/year being commissioned 2029-2041). Meaning minimal Virginia production until 2043. Shawn C and Gessler are excellent authors.

Ukraine: Beautiful Sad Patriotic Song.
Here and above is a beautiful and sad, patriotic Ukrainian song, including the lyrics:
"To liberate their homeland Ukraine from the shackles of Moscow."
Hi Pete Beyond singing the Ukrainians appears to have developped quite effective anti-ship missiles ! The Moskva was the symbol of the Russian Navy might , although it was used merely as a cruise missile platform.. Ironically built in Nikolaiev..this was before..!
Commenters, please limit your comments to a short paragraph = 5 lines. I'm not ungrateful - but can't write 2 or 3 short articles per week if I'm fielding essay length comments. Pete.
