    Australia's next submarine fleet will be nuclear-powered under an
    audacious plan that will see a controversial $90 billion program
    to build up to 12 French-designed submarines scrapped.

    Judging by their past, I doubt if even ONE will be built...

    Not in my lifetime

    Should buy them off the shelf instead of pandering to lazy feather
    bedding unions.

    Which shelf has nuclear-powered submarines on it?

    That sort of sub can be found on the shelf in Byker's defective

    The American shelf, where, if you wait for the shelf to be full, and
    where they can be built much better, faster, and cheaper than the
    bludgers in South Australia.

    Plenty of used ones in US
    Like electric vehicles the battery is not recyclable 5years.
    After 30 years you need to throw the reactor away.
    It is possible the US will have a explode button in the reactor, in
    case they fall into enemy hands, like a Labor/Greens goverment, or
    Tony Abbott comes back!
    You can trust this guy.
    Both him and Joe Biden are Chinese operatives. https://grrrgraphics.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/milley-traitor-1-1024x737.jpg

    Trump was never running against Biden.
    He was running against voter fraud.
    https://youtu.be/U4c5dYDD9xw
    The Democrats’ First Bill of 2021 Is to Lock In
    Fraudulent Election Maneuvers and Steal Elections in Perpetuity

    The left loathes Trump so much it totally blinds them
    to anything he says, even when what he says
    could potentially save thousands of lives.

    Amazing where in America a lifetime of lying, thieving,
    fraud and cheating will take you in politics?

    Joe Biden's son, zero track record, for jobs in languages
    he don't speak thrown out of navy for doing coke,
    turned in a rental car with crack pipes in it,
    hid from a process server for getting a girl pregnant
    to avoid child support.
    And now he's a high paid artist with no discernible talent.

    Five days with dad on Chinese trip was paid US$1.5 billion dollars?
    Corruption by proxy,a new corruption that is difficult to detect

    Joe Biden had a little boy
    his nose was white with snow
    And everywhere Joe Biden went
    his son was sure to go
    He followed to Ukraine one day
    and scored a lot of dough
    This made Joe Biden worry so
    he did a quid pro quo : Anon

    Somewhere out there is a 2-year-old girl whose mother is a stripper,
    her father is a crackhead and her grandpa is President of the United States
    . --Fact check THAT.

    last post of this didna go thru.... lessee

    I'm pretty sure we could get a deal right now on some brand new French
    subs ;^> Actually that seems like a good plan. We need nuclear powered
    subs for our Arctic, and since the Yanks are already there with theirs*, Canada's interests would be well served with some state of the art French
    subs patroling our Arctic.

    Just thinking that boats capable of carrying people and supplies around
    under the ice might need a serious refit that we could only get buying
    new.
