More Bang for the Buck! East Coast Australian Nuclear Submarine Base

For the small fee of one standard Henderson Defence Precinct $70 Billion infrastructure project - communities with east coast nuclear submarine base aspirations are competing for the rights to host five AUKUS nuclear submarines.

Newcastle, Port Kembla-Wollongong and Brisbane are all third rate - as these ports as they have 100,000s of polluted humans. Not a problem with Twofold Bay south of Eden, Far South Coast NSW. 

Twofold is pristine, has whales and a small remote population of people, not yet irradiated, third deepest natural harbour (pre-explosion) in the Southern Hemisphere and few NIMBY or NOTEY environmentalists. Once the current residents are driven out by Dr Strangeloves Twofold would welcome Virginia-class Submarines with Highly Enriched (Weapons Grade) Uranium reactors.

Such reactors have advantages in that just one, safely cut into, would yield sufficient nuclear explosives for 20 Australian atom bombs. This would save Australia $1 Trillion in atomic bomb development and usher out any thought of a nuclear free South Pacific (the Virginia reactors are literally slow action nuclear weapons) while yielding squadrons of nuclear bombers.
