Australia is preparing to appear in the composition of their naval forces nuclear submarines. In the framework of cooperation of the participating countries of the new block AUKUS (Australia – UK – USA), United Kingdom will take care of training the Australian submariners. They will train on British submarines.

At the same time, it is not known exactly when they will get their own nuclear submarines. Some experts call 2040 years, and such a long time period is a cause of concerns about the country's defense in the next twenty years.

Now in the Royal Australian Navy argue about what to replace the decommissioned submarines of class "Collins" as long as the Navy did not get nuclear submarines. Moreover, the role played by the coronavirus pandemic, which is not allowed to accelerate the construction of new submarines for Australia.

In addition to submarines, Australia awaits the imminent construction of the frigate class, "hunter". These ships must also be taken into service by the Royal Australian Navy in the foreseeable future to replace the frigates earlier and already obsolescent models. However, the construction of new frigates also stalled due to the coronavirus pandemic, which broke the supply chain and led to delays in a number of areas. Now the Australian government insists on speeding up the construction of the frigates.

The appearance as part of the Royal Australian Navy new ships and submarines, according to allies of the country AUKUS, should significantly enhance the military capabilities of the country. It is very important not only for Canberra, but for Washington, because Australia is one of the key political and military partners of the United States in the Pacific region. In a growing confrontation with China, the U.S. is forced to take care of the growth of the combat capability of the armed forces of all its Pacific allies. The United States themselves and provoke China into a military confrontation, trying to involve him and Australia.
