Australia, in a significant move under the AUKUS security pact, has selected defense manufacturers BAE Systems and ASC Pty Ltd to construct a new fleet of next-generation nuclear-powered submarines. This decision is part of a broader initiative to bolster naval infrastructure, with Australia committing billions of dollars towards the development of docks, shipyards, and factories both domestically and in the United Kingdom. The initiative, which includes a multi-billion pound contract for BAE Systems, is a major boost for British industry, promising substantial investments in British shipbuilding and the creation of numerous jobs. The submarines, which are to be built with technical assistance and supply chain input from the UK, including nuclear reactors made by Rolls Royce in Derby, mark a milestone in defense cooperation among the United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia. The Australian government has allocated 4.6 billion Australian dollars ($3 billion) to support this endeavor, aiming to ensure the timely delivery of the SSN-AUKUS submarines.
