    One gets the sense that neither the Revolution or the Australians bothered to talk to the French. If so this is another lesson to the Europeans that the Americans can not be counted on going forwards. In that regard it is important that the UK and the French have the only two militaries in Europe that Matter, even though the UK is massively shrunk.

    The cost for cancellation is yet to be negotiated for example....The French are owed some money....maybe a lot of money.....and the Australians will have nothing to show for it.
    I choose my own words like the Americans of olden times........before this dystopia arrived.

    I doubt that a diesel powered sub is even capable of reaching Taiwan, which is over 7000 kms from Sydney. The Aussies are being reminded what happened in WW2 when the Japs bombed Darwin.

    The term nuclear sub refers to the propulsion system, not the type of armaments. Any sub could fire nuclear armaments, and many nuclear subs could not fire any type of missile.

    Primavera is just making stuff up, again.

    trump's attempt to surrender them to China scared them. They do have a blue water navy, which includes several long range capable ships. They are a small nation (population wise), so have a small navy. That being said, it does exist.

    This is an attempt to up their game, and I think it is a good idea. I doubt they have wasted billions of dollars.

    They were not meant to.

    The Navy is built for patrolling 100 miles out...that is it.

    Primavera is just desperate to find something to disagree with someone.
