Here we go again…Allan Behm (writing for the Australian Institute) serves up another word salad and take pockshots at… Australia’s adherence to the NPT via… well, everything submarine and US alliance with a limp lettuce. Or is it a swipe at Senator #Conroy ‘s interview performance on 7:30? You tell me, I couldn’t decide which.
I might also note that the Virginia boats to be sold to Australia are capable of launching US Cruise missiles (Tomahawk and its latest nuclear capable incarnation) via torpoedo tubes (simple google search will reveal that much). Hence, so are current USN Virginia boats not just the new ones to be built — that makes the USN SSGN rotations in HMAS Stearling in 2032 the author references here irrelevent — we’d be hosting potentially nuclear armed SSN (from the US and potentially the UK) well before then… might already have.
My opinion of the author’s writing craft is decidedly going on a slide into the bin. Read him if you must, just keep your wits about you and read him very carefully and have a think about it.
Just in case my writing here attracts critical comments, in my defence, this is a toot, not an analysis, nor anything I’d consider ready for publication.

I've been to sea many times in undesirable conditions. No showers, no AC, tired crew, away from home. It's not a fighting force, it's just survival at that point.
The once *feared* #USN is depleted of effectiveness and morale, to keep a Pedophile in power.
He's weakening it for his friend #Putin

The USS Abraham Lincoln has spent 208 days at sea without a port visit, including five straight months of combat ops.
Reports describe moldy showers, no soap, broken toilets, and crews with just two days off in seven months—raising concerns about readiness and morale.

@ElectricTrike
In #EpicFury special military operation #Iran blockaded the Strait of #Hormuz. In return #DJT ordered the blockade of all Iranian ports by #USN and #USAF.If tomorrow Australia were to face a similar fate, where a country X were to blockade Australia's ports, Australia is an island after all, then the best counter would be for Australia to do a reverse blockade. That is where #SSN come into play. Also #SSN along with drones would be the best way to break the blockade.

“We are the strongest nation on the planet Earth and we’re in a stalemate with #Iran. And now we’re begging to get back into a deal that you all trashed in the first place.” - Senator Cory Booker.
Not "ARE" but "WERE". #USN and #USMC focused so much on being the blue-water ocean dominating forces that they forgot how to be a green-water navy and marines.
The end of freedom of navigation came on Feb 28, 2026 with a 38 Trillion in debt.

#Trump is worse off than in 2016. #Iran still supports its proxies. Support that has not ended.
The #nuclear question is unresolved. #Iran still retains the tech and manpower to refine Uranium.
The #Ayatollahs are still in power in Tehran.
The Strait of #Hormuz is still closed. Bab-el-Mandeb is likely to close soon. #Iran and #Houthis are extracting tolls from international shipping lanes. The ability of #USN and #USMC to keep sea lanes open is in doubt.
Congrats #DJT. Great job. Thank You.

I cannot help but sigh deeply whenever politicians get involved in strategic military discussions. This is in no way to disparage, in this case, Senator #Shoebridge as he rightly points out that a handful of submarines will not guarantee open sea lanes to Australia in the event of war. For what it’s worth, Sen Shoebridge is only targeting the Govt’s goto spiel about #AUKUS, that is a simple message which the public can understand and focus on.
While the govt messaging about protecting sealanes being the reason for SSN acquisition is not entirely wrong, it is not entirely correct either. Submarines platforms are primarily intelligence, insertion, and deterence platforms, #Stealth is something SSN currently have in spades. Their stealth characteristics make these SNNs a force projection multiplier in any theater of sea warfare and likely to make an aggressor think twice before they commit to offensive actions. This comment is not a defence of #AUKUS since that is simply a defence acquisition project. But it is in defence of the need for undersea platforms that are stealthy, highly survivable, can transport personel, equipment and stores, carry offensive and defensive elements and traverse transoceanic distances at speed without refueling. Those needs are dictated to the ADF by the govt of the day in terms of assigned strategic missions and outcomes. In short, our ADF (men adn women pledging their lives to defend us all) deserves the very best materiel and platforms we can provide in order to carry out those missions and responsibilites entrusted to our them.
Everything else is plainly just politics, played by, I dare say, less than genuine and knowledgeable individuals.

CW: #AUKUS "cost-effective" mindfuck misinformation
@Heterokromia
The #RAN has had some bad and costly experiences with second hand #USN vessels in the past. I don’t imagine these tired #SSNs will be any different.There is something about the first tier of #AUKUS that smells like we’re in too deep to back out now so we’re just going to double down and keep going with it. Something #MadKingDonny knows a lot about.

Have you seen this fighter.? It was on the ramp when some of the fighters were staging at Moffett Field for the Super Bowl flyover. I am looking for a cleared picture. I think it is the VFA-41 “Black Aces” CAG bird but not 100 sure. The settings are in the other image #AvGeek #USN #FA18F
Anybody know for sure? I was shooting from a distance through two wire fences so this is as good as it got
