Like the two submarine builders (KHI and MHI) the US has two Virginia SSN builders. The powerful US submarine purchasing arm with much knowledge and experience owes much to Admiral Rickover's long management.<br /><br />It would probably be good for Australia if Japan-JMD owned most of the intellectual property rights - including for the diesel engines and electric motors.<br /><br />Regards<br /><br />PetePetehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02624742078679760819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19245896.post-84959614047235811492015-03-24T23:57:24.914+11:002015-03-24T23:57:24.914+11:00MHI and KHI are big companies, but they are still ...MHI and KHI are big companies, but they are still subcontractors of Japanese Ministry of Defence (JMD) in the case of submarine building. In JMD, Techical Research and Development Institute develops weapons and commissions research support to pivate sectors, and based on these results, Equipment Procurement and Construction Office makes ship building contract with private sectors. So I think that many important intellectual properties (except Stirling AIP) belong to JMD.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
