Australia: ‘Arms race’ leaving our subs all at sea

Posted by Matt in May 5th, 2007

For more than three decades, Australia has had the most capable submarine fleet in our immediate neighbourhood and into South-East Asia. But that lead is now under challenge, on multiple fronts.

Regional navies are competing in an arms race to build and expand their own submarine fleets. Our navy’s ability to hunt submarines has been degraded by years of neglect, and its anti-submarine weapons are barely adequate.

At the same time, Australia’s ability to keep its six submarines at sea is eroding as highly skilled crews head for shore for well-paid, family-friendly civilian jobs.

FUNNY RANDOM FACTS ABOUT AUSTALIA: -Their cheeses don't make me run to the toilet. Nor do their meats. I seem to have a problem with American dairy products. -Their junk food is expensive, but their healthy food is cheap. So if chocolate is an aphrodisiac, you'll be very sexually frustrated when you can't afford a candy bar. -They have a lot of bugs since they're not so heavy into pest control. Bring bug repellent and a bat when you come to visit. Don't be afraid to by stupid looking hats to keep the flies away either! -If you ever go to Melbourne, don't be afraid to walk down a dark alley. You may see some very impressive art. Just watch where you step... they also seem to serve as public restrooms from time to time. -Go to Koala Cove while driving on The Great Ocean Road! ...

USA vs Australia Basketball 2008
All Credits goes to JD2K USA-Australia 87-76 W They couldn't shoot, and occasionally they didn't defend. It was definitely a performance the Americans should be relieved came before they got to Beijing. Undefeated, but no longer unchallenged, the U.S. Olympic men's basketball team wrapped up its exhibition schedule with its toughest test, pulling away to beat Australia 87-76 Tuesday night. The United States led by only four points nearly halfway through the third quarter and was up by seven midway through the fourth against an Australian team that was resting its best player, Milwaukee Bucks center Andrew Bogut. The U.S. players still feel like gold-medal favorites, but they hardly looked like gold-medal locks during this shaky outing. "Nothing alarming for us. It's alarming when you...
