Funnier ... stuff top of mind of an America lady living down under, making me suspicious that the entire aukus deal is a back- or under-handed way for the Aussies to pick up some of the tab for having like-mindedly losing the Afghanistan war

either that or the like-minded did not think through the problem of building nuke subs on essentially a desert island devoid of nuclear talent except those imported from ... china

in the meantime, those 'conventional' engineers, having been working for upwards of 6-years on the French submarine localisation effort shall have not much to do and presumably live on the dole, or migrate to china to help out with underwater drones which presumably are not nuke powered even if capable of nuclear-tipping

:0)

the entire episode seems a pink panther episode of diplomacy & strategy



here is a guy who is pro-nuke-sub

and he pointed out that Australia spent a lot of years transforming the French nuke sub design into a conventional sub

the project shall increase Aussie defence budget might be anywhere from 50-100% rise.

messages from views are telling, as the show was aired, and the fellow wants to name the first submarine 'Xi Jinping'
