Australia Gets Used Submarines Post-AUKUS
Australia and the United States announced that they will amend the "AUKUS" agreement regarding the purchase of nuclear submarines, so that all of them are used instead of new ones. The modification aims to simplify Australia's acquisition process for Virginia-class submarines and facilitate supply chain management and costs, while ensuring the operation of three submarines rather than a mix of new and used vessels. The agreement is part of Australia's defense strategy, which may cost up to $235 billion over 30 years.
