AUKUS collapse offers Australia the chance to navigate an innovative future

Donald Trump probably abandoned the AUKUS contract, as Austin reported, welcome to the Albanian government from an expensive madness.

The US seems to leave the controversial one AUKUS Contract signed by miserable clumsy Morrison government In dying days.

President of the United States of the United States Donald Trump He wants to get out. The only projects that he strongly support the world enrichment and companies directly. Together with other Westminster countries, Australia refuses to pay direct bribes to individual national leaders as necessary.

Now, Trump, who has a failed grip on the advanced cognitive decline and reality, called on the death of the contract effectively by calling a defense by the defense under the secretary. Elbridge Colby. Colby has been a vocal aukus for a long time critic And probably will recommend cancellation.

Solid reasons to leave Aukus

The first pillar of the agreement between Australia, Britain and the United States is that Americans provide Australia to the early 2030s to provide nuclear -energy attack submarines to defend the three virginia class submarines.

The second column is the cooperation between the new military technology between the three countries. These include submarine abilities, artificial intelligence, electronic war and advanced cyber, hypersonic and counter -hypersonic abilities.

Colby’s argument Against the AUKUS agreement, the US does not have enough submarine for its own needs and cannot build them fast enough to back up the predictable future. This is true. The current US administration is the least competent in its history.

There are more challenging reasons for the abandonment of other Aukus critics. Most of them are expressed by former prime ministers Paul Keating And Malcolm Turnbull And others, in the event of hostility between the US and China, the US army or other conflict will be commanded automatically by the US army.

It would be a disaster for Australia’s relationship with China and other nations, Keating DiscussesDraging such a war.

Sources Lost forever

If Aukus collapses, Australia has little chance of getting back billions.

Among the numerous failures of the coalition government of the incompetent Morrison outbreak Any penalty for the contract to default.

In any case, for life guilty Currently, he has never had to manage the White House contractsBut legally or morally binding.

As a result of the inadequacy of the coalition from 2014 to 2022, losses to Australia have hundreds of billions of borrowed dollars, including billions of borrowed dollars. paid Aukus so far.

They should be accepted because citizens should maintain their stupidity for those who choose such a desperate Lord to try to rule the country.

Visionary Sea Future

If AUKUS fails and Australians write losses, they can comprehend this as an opportunity to monitor advantageous alternatives.

The future of the underwater naval war appears on more and more unmanned underwater ships (UUVS). Australia is well placed well to build them for their own purposes and then sell them to regional neighbors and beyond.

This may seem like a quantum jump for shipbuilding in Australia, but it can be realized.

Australia has proven that the Collins -class submarines could build submarines during the Hawke/Keating period, and since then he has successfully provided other military ammunition.

In the first period, the Albanian government to start Investment in small UUVs. Australian sea ship manufacturer Anduril AustraliaA side organization of American Anduril IndustriesHe’s already building a modest UUV that he’s looking for Ghost shark.

Although technical information is restricted, military monitor War area Australian Royal Navy (To run) And Defense Science and Technology Group.

A ghost shark prototype, War areaIt has a 3D printed exterior, weighs 2.8 tons, is 5.6 meters long and can work at a depth of 6,000 meters for ten days. Advanced AI technology provides autonomous operations.

Between 2025 and 2028, Ran hopes to buy three UUVs for both military and non -military tasks.

Beyond the Ghost Shark, difficulties for the future are for higher speeds, deeper dives, longer tasks, more hidden and more advanced tasks, including correct delivery of deadly weapons.

If Australia’s existing submarines can be replaced with technologically advanced UUVs, costs will be much lower and risks for personnel will significantly decrease. This may allow Australia to reduce military expenditures in general.

Potential Partnerships

Australia has no resources to form UUVs alone. Just like the Collins class submarine was built in cooperation with the Swedish ship KockumsNew initiatives will need partners.

Possibilities are many in addition to American companies such as Anduril. Germany’s existing UUVs GraysharkFrance XLUUV and ships Japan And South Korea.

Prime minister Anthony ArbaneseDiscussion with Canadian counterpart, with the prime minister Mark CarneyIt included Canada at the G7 meeting of last week joining Aukus. This is another possible partner.

Reason for optimism

There is a solid experience in Shipyards in Australia, South Australia and Collins -class submarine design, construction and maintaining since the 1980s.

Australia likes the goodwill of all neighboring countries, has no current participation in any conflict and does not see any threats on the horizon.

The Australians continued their chances of establishing a government for the predictable future of destructive coalition parties.

So, to borrow a line Michael J Fox inside American PresidentLet’s take this majority for a turn of 94 people and see what to do.
