Toddler continues to make America weaker in ways that mysteriously benefit our enemies

The key benefit to supplying/leasing SSNs to Australia is making the Chinese cope with a credible long-range threat from another allied country

Even if Australia didnt enter a US-China conflict (they probably would), the fact the fleet exists would be enough to divert significant resources away from US forces to counter the Australian threat like just in case but go off i guess

ok so This fleet-in-being strategy was used in both World Wars to lock up much of the Royal Navy that could have otherwise been fighting the enemy

the issue with giving Australia subs is they will inevitably try and reverse engineer our shit and will gain top secret info

also like there is a reason why the us military usually like only gives away old shit to the dweebs of the world

um Reading the Guardian article it says US is behind the target of building new subs for its own navy, so he would rather retain command of subs and force Australian harbors to service them than selling them to Aussies, and The money saved can be used to buy drones and missiles

literally, Biden also wrote an escape clause for the deal for this exact situation

Bro you couldnt even keep Afghanistan, have some humility Amerimutt *sips tea*

true or false story???

This is not it

This like the 20 years of history for these submarines, and France was like Subs for sale and so Australia bought, they never showed up, and America was like subs for sale and Australia bought and France was mad because they were so going to deliver those subs literally any day now!!! And now this

Reminds me of how the Egyptians sent their T90 tanks to Russia and paid for them to be upgrade and Russia was like Nah theyre going to Ukraine but go off i guess

hes huddled up in his c*m blanket on his c*m couch and not going out for days

The whole Attack class was trying to build a conventional submarine to do the job of a nuclear submarine, and I.e, and cope with Aus enormous coastline and sea approaches

In literally any conflict with China, the sub would use up precious fuel and energy like just getting to potential choke points in the Indonesian archipelago

also like Its even worse if deployed to the South China Sea to hit Chinese infrastructure, and Conventional boats have to surface periodically to take on air and run the diesel engines to charge the batteries, and This leaves them vulnerable to attack and essentially precludes remaining on station that far from home

like Only a nuclear powered submarine can do a job like that

Lol, how far does a diesel sub go and how far are the good spots to sink chink shops???

i feel like And as if a frog sub would a) ever be good or b) no be nickel and dimed to heck

omg! !slots111

Australia was already fighting in WW2 before the US entered the war
