Show Notes
Admiral Daryl Caudle, the US Navys top operations officer, recently visited Australia, reaffirming the commitment to deliver Virginia-class nuclear submarines by 2032 under the AUKUS pact. Australia plans to purchase between three to five of these boats, a $368 billion deal with the US and UK. Caudle expressed confidence in the US shipbuilding industrys ability to increase production to over two subs per year by the end of the decade, despite skepticism from critics. He also toured upgrades at HMAS Stirling and named the incoming unit Submarine Squadron Three. Australia is investing $8 billion in base expansions to host these subs, strengthening naval cooperation between the allies.
