Australia in ‘a terrible lot of trouble’ with $90b ‘con-job’ submarine program
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 сен 2024
- The Australian’s Robert Gottliebsen says Australia is “in a terrible lot of trouble” with the $90 billion “con-job” submarine program.
“The French sent out here a whole series of negotiators - led by a very skilled female negotiator - and they sold us a deal that would have the ships here earlier, it would have Australian content,” he told Sky News host Andrew Bolt.
“But as soon as we signed it, as soon as we said yes, they said ‘oh that’s not the deal at all, we’ve got a totally different deal for you, we’re going to do the lot and it’s going to cost you a lot more money’.
“It’s not going to cost $90 billion, it’s going to cost $120-150 billion … it is a nonsense and it has to stop.”
Did these politicians ever bother to ask the Navy?
they did, they wanted to know if the submarine would stay under water for more than 20 minutes...
Yes,the CCP navy.
Ask Pauline about pump jets
Of course not, that's not how government procurement works.....

Complete dogs breakfasts, Federal Government, State Governments, Local Governments are all corrupt. Screwed over, Australia now beholden to China and India, Australia is stuffed!! Who wants to talk about submarines. France were partners with the CCP and built the Wuhan virus bat laboratory in china, once china used up the French booted them out of China and let loose the virus.

You mean like car plants? The Liberals. 😄
Nah, Holden and Ford were a joke, making garbage cars that noone wanted with ridiculous overhead. The billions of taxpayer dollars that were paid to keep those useless companies afloat was sent on to Detroit which is why they still had to close even with endless subsidy.
Manufacturing was kept on life-support because of their own incompetency and union greed, keeping wages and perks way too high to remain competitive
@@jayone8891 You're right on that. I compared the annual report for Holden from 2012-2013. The number of employees dropped by 5% and the wages bill rose by 12%. Each car built had at least a $3,000 labour component, in the USA and other nations that figure is $1,000.
How in the hell did Australia find herself without her own shipyards? An island nation......
How are hey going to build submarines if no one can leave their homes?
In a word Feminism and remember 79 years ago the Allies found themselves in the same position but luckily the Soviet Union came to the rescue of the Allies. There is no soviet union now and Russia is more than likely to join with the Chinese and the rest of the countries that have had United States sanctions slapped on them so the US can steal their oil or land.
So let me ask you

"If everyone is thinking alike, then somebody isn't thinking." - General Patton
Patton was a War God men like him are gone we are stuck with crap.
Right
Agreed
That’s worth remembering. Like it.
After WWII Patton wanted to take the American European Forces and attack Russia because he didn't trust Russia. MacArthur wanted to take the Pacific Forces and attack China. There reasoning for making such a bold move was they told President Truman that they had the equipment, they were mobilized and that America was going to have to fight them someday so it might as well be now. We had 27 aircraft carriers and 70% of the worlds naval vessels. During the signing of Japan's surrender documents they flew 525 B-29 Super Fortress bombers overhead as a sign of force. We could have conquered the world.

What happened ?
@@emiliodiaz3927 they made a new deal with the UK and US for nuclear submarine technology, which has France pissed off

Yes! It is... Much like 3 US Senators being transported by a huge Military Plane right smack into China!
China is trying to provoke Taiwan to respond by firing on their aircraft
That would then give China the excuse they are looking for to invade
Then by treaty the United States is obligated to help Taiwan
Ask the Syrians, invaded by air, sea and land by criminal hoards of murican thefts ....
Ordinarily yes
However it is accepted by all parties that there is only one China.
This is the status in the UN and confirmed by the US in the 1970s.
That is also the stance of the Communist Party of China and the Nationalist Party of China.
The latter resides on the Island of Formosa aka Taiwan as they fled the mainland in the process of losing the civil war.
I say losing as the civil war is still in place although actual fighting has ceased for the past 60 years
In other words the war is still technically on.

Alarmed when guys chose French subs instead of Japanese ones. Of course, Japanese subs have a major drawback. They don't offer kickbacks.
The japanese ones are 50% lighter and would have been made 100% in Japan. Dont forgot it. plus they were using untested technology.
It always easier to attack France than admit that your country did mistakes and is responsible of the situation your are in now.
@@johndoe-cd9vt Exactly, the AU government wanted all of these add ons and capabilities. They DCMS told them they would have to go up to the new class sub coming out years later that was under development and the AU bought into the development program. So its purely AU's fault for accepting a sub that was only in blueprint phase. They should have purchased off the shelf subs to tide themselves over while they developed the next gen sub. This way they would have had short term capability, while developing their naval manufacturing base.
@@karakiri283 The Japanese Soryu-class was offered with a tender for the first several to be made in Japan with Australian engineers training and working alongside and then building the rest in Australia with technology transfers. Also, the Australian version of the Soryu was modified from the Japanese version to be longer, heavier, with extended range and capabilities. Most of the drawbacks (including range and composition) would've been mitigated by the extension and potential design mods.

Or the Spanish submarine,I live in Spain,which as the price tag soared put on so much weight that they realised it wouldn't be able to resurface and had to be redesigned .
whenever buying from the French be aware that it is always a create work programme for the French first and foremost. Getting allies to share the bill for this is the goal
Wait, what? Ever gotten weapons from another country without properly macho Instructors?
Even the German minister acknowledged regarding the FCAS 6th gen fighter program, that German and Spanish contributors where paying the development of the plane France wants. If they don't get it their way, they shall probably break out capitalising all learned, as they did with the Eurofighter, to conceive from there on their Rafele. No wonder the Italians wisely chose to join the BAE initiative.
I have a better idea for Aussies , why don't them buy directly to PRC ?!? As for buying from the French ( plus German ), remember Eurocopter EC 665 Tiger , Armed Reconnaissance Helicopter 22 were bought by 2001 and 18 of them assembled through AUSTRALIAN AEROSPACE ...! "Une véritable réussite"; so to say those war choppers are used extensively in West Africa by both White-flagged French & Germans for a while when yours , as far as overhaul + maintenance is concerned , need an expensive trash basket

How will subs be built in Adelaide with electricity from only windmills and solar panels? Oh; I know; they have a battery!
When I first read about this a few years ago I thought immediately that Australia could have the same subs America has for the price they are paying for this new non nuclear sub.

@Hans Tuber Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong; but I don't think that any US company has designed any non-nuclear submarines in over 50 years.
Obviously the OP hasn't got a remote clue but just had to comment anyway. Sums up the audience of sky news...
Even if Uncle Sam would agree - it would likely be a lease. Plus we can't fuel/maintain them in Aus, so we'd have to regularly recycle them to the US west coast which would limit their operational utility. I would love them, don't get me wrong, but the consensus even among advocates is we probably lack the infrastructure to keep them viable.
