Leaders of Australia, UK, and US have unveiled new details of their plan to create a fleet of next generation nuclear-powered submarines. The pact is aimed at countering Xina's influence [militaristic ambitions] in the Indo-Pacific region.
Under the AUKUS agreement, Australia will first receive at least three nuclear-powered submarines from the US. The allies will also work together to create a new fleet using cutting-edge technology, including reactors made by Rolls-Royce in the UK.
Under the deal outlined on 2023-3-13, members of the Royal Australian Navy (RAN) will be embedded at US and UK submarine bases from this year to gain the necessary skills to use the submarines. From 2027, the US and UK will base a small number of nuclear subs at a RAN base in Perth, Western Australia, before Australia buys three American Virginia-class submarines in the early 2030s - with options to purchase two more.
After that, the plan is to design and build an entirely new nuclear-powered submarine for the UK and Australian navies, called SSN-AUKUS. This attack craft will be built in Britain and Australia to a British design, but use technology from all three countries.
The interim and future boats will give Australia submarines which can travel farther and faster than its existing fleet, with [conventional] cruise missiles that could strike targets on land and at sea.
