Well according to The Australian today the biggest gap is that we are building Damen LCHs instead of building hybrid diesel electric nuclear stern landing craft in a JV with Fiji. This of course is all Julia Gillards fault :rolleyes:.
i read that article and you might have embellished a little. They didn’t blame Julia but stated her government cancelled the original landing craft program and that the can was kicked down the road by subsequent governments. And nuclear hybrid? It was a few days ago but Pretty sure they were referring to Fijian Gov minister stating they would like the ability deliver SMRs onboard LCs into disaster hit areas … I don’t recall it being a form of propulsion energy….
