Royal Australian Navy Discussions and Updates 2.0

People, these are issues concering the USN. Could we please take the discussion to the thread devoted to that organisation (where it is already, to so extent, going on). This is the RAN thread

To be fair - if the USN actually makes a bulk buy of Mogamis - Henderson suddenly becomes part of a much bigger supply chain ecosystem, and if done properly the unit cost of a Mogami should plummet.

No doubt we would still find some way to mess it up.

It got taken off track once Evolved Mogami was mentioned. The one part I agree with is that we should hedge our bets with Japanese builds.

Yeah, we have a track record of making a sow's ear out of a silk purse.

What we need to avoid doing is moving stuff off overseas just as our new infrastucture and workforce comes on line.

Osborne was hitting its stride when it was hit with a blackhole that caused many of the workforce issues with Hunter, we will have the same issues in the west.

Pollies and journos are looking backwards, not forwards. We need to make decisiins based on the future not the past as every change in direction, every backtrack, every time we percist with already failed concepts, we increade cost and blow the schedule.
