Osborne Naval Shipbuilding
Added 2020-11-23 12:34:23 +0000 UTCAll Future Submarine Project subs will be built here. They are designated Attack-class.
I made a lot of progress on the Sub Brief over the weekend. The main outline is finished. I am just filling the gaps and fact checking. This will be a slightly different 'Sub Brief' than normal because we are in the Design Phase. No construction has taken place yet and most of the Design details are secret.... so, it's how not to buy a submarine.
Anyway... I digress. Because of the political nature of this topic, my report is just the facts with no opinion. I'll let you tell me your opinion if you want, but you wont know mine.
I expect the Barracuda Shortfin Sub Brief to be out soon.

It’s not that the Navy doesn’t want nuclear boats, it’s the fact that we do not have the support or training industry to support a nuclear force. Unless the US or UK were to provide nuclear technology, training and support we would be unable to sustain any sized fleet of 688s. The topic of nuclear was brought up repeatedly at the recent SIA conference and it always comes back to the industrial capability and having one research reactor at Lucas Heights just won’t cut it
