Asked about a report, which contemplates the #US not selling any #nuclearsubmarines to #Australia – as promised under #AUKUS, #Marles says there will be “a whole lot of commentary” on AUKUS.

Marles said:

“We’re working with the #TrumpRegime, & we’ve heard #Trump make clear the position of the #UnitedStates in respect of this question, & he has said that we are full steam ahead in respect of this & it includes the transfer of the Virginia [class submarines].”

NOT delivering any #AUKUS #nuclearsubmarines to #Australia explored as option in US congressional report.

Report offers alternative of the #USnavy retaining boats and operating them out of #Australian bases. #auspol

As a follow-up to the #murder of #AlexPretti wouldn’t it be about time that we Australians broke off the AUKUS deal and wound back what ties we have to the #dysfunctional #crazy #racist #UnitedStates?

If we really need human crewed #NuclearSubmarines, and I suspect we don’t, it would be a good move to try and get back on side with the French who could build our subs for us.

Of course we would need to build a #nuclear #reactor to produce the fuel needed, or failing that we should arrange for the #French or even the #British to refuel our subs for us when the fuel rods need replacing.

Or maybe we should concentrate on #unmanned nuclear power #drone submarines capable of working at ridiculous depths and loitering on the bottom for years, ready to kill any threatening ship or submarine when needed.

The technology is available; perhaps we could lead the world in producing our own version of such a monstrous machine. Again, we could rely on our friendly allies to refuel them for us for a price.

#ScottMorrison was a lying idiot.

Does Europe need more nuclear-powered submarines?

A nuclear submarine is a sensitive technology that is currently used by only six countries: France, the United Kingdom, the United States, Russia, China, and India.

A defence expert weighs in on whether Europe needs more nuclear-powered submarines amid growing tensions with Russia.

South Korea's nuclear submarine gamble raises prospect of underwater arms race in Asia

South Korea's pursuit of nuclear-powered submarines is gaining traction following President Donald Trump's endorsement, ending decades of U.S. resistance in a move that could reshape Asia's security landscape and escalate an underwater arms race.
