OPINION: Managing the submarine needs of both the US and Australia will mean unpalatable decisions and new ways of working on high-tech projects.
Vice Admiral William Joseph Houston is a thoughtful and experienced United States naval officer, entrusted with command of perhaps the most potent US capability: its submarine fleet.
By the time the war had ended, US submarines had sunk over 30 per cent of Japan’s navy and more than 60 per cent of Japan’s merchant marine fleet. The success of AUKUS will be determined by the ability of an integrated defence industrial base in the US and Australia. The senators added that they “recognise the strategic value of having one of our closest allies operating a world-class navy”. Indeed, Reed subsequently tweeted that he is “proud to support AUKUS”, noting that America’s advantage over China is “our network of partners and allies”.
