Australia is set to provide $3 billion to British industry to support the construction of nuclear-powered submarines and ensure its new fleet arrives on time.
The virginia class will be US built but the aukus class will be as described. I don’t imagine we’ll be getting them any time soon if at all and the budget will almost certainly blow out. Australia honestly been taken for a ride with this deal.
Just don’t ask the UK for nuclear weapons lol.
