SUBMARINES & MISSILES

[Nerius13]

Not true, P3 Orion and P8 poseidon aircraft are anti submarine warfare ships and the P8 actually carries torpedoes on its wings. Navy also has a hunter class frigate that does ASW. The subs that only hunt other subs are known as Hunter killer or fast attack class.

Not true? Yes, surface forces do have limited antisubmarine ability. The P3 and P8 are maritime patrol aircraft with antisubmarine capability but don't put your house on them achieving kills. As for the Hunter Class Frigate or any surface warship, the advantages are all with the submarine. It can detect surface contacts long before current passive listening systems ie a tail can detect them. Active SONAR has a limited range and add to that modern antisubmarine weapons are torpedoes, a submarine's weapon of choice. Skimmers are hard-pushed to find them let alone damage them. As a practical example, US Carrier Battle Groups' first line of antisubmarine defence are their attached submarines. Like it or not submarines are the current "capital ships" our submarines will be multirole.

Its sad that we have to spend all this money to deter China. It would've been much better spent in the fields of science or medicines.

During WW2 the US and us put Japanese (mostly all of Asian appearance) in internment camps in the country, we and the US didn't have German internment camps as we were both racists, there was only "the yellow peril". Do you think if China gets too aggressive with Taiwan or invades we'll put Aussies of Asian appearance in internment camps?
Before you say it couldn't happen again remember how badly Asians were treated at the beginning of covid? When Trump labelled it the "Chinese flu".

What are your views on where covid originated?

What are your views on where covid originated?

It came from a place where the light don't shine.

Yes! Something completely unrelated. Just might be someone out there who can shed some light for this poor ignorant Punter.

The Government is gonna spend Billions on the Subs and Missiles. Now who is actually spending this money, is it the Taxpayer? Is it the same scenario as the vaccines that everyone was so grateful for the money being spent by the Government to save us from Covid, that that in actual fact the taxpayers and their Grandchildren will still be paying for for years to come.

And my second dilemma....why is the Government so anxious about a threat and from where are they contemplating this threat will come from?

Just your typical white privilege not getting it their way. The whites are just outdone in all aspects of economics, power and technology. The whites oreach and i say preach about human rights, democracy and intelligence......really well look at the human rights records they have caused amongst the aboriginals and land stolen, or the stealing from indian americans in US. Thats a failure in history and still ongoing. They preach democracy ...really look at the arrests at canberra for so called freedom protests and in US the white supremacist climbing Capital hill because the election didnt go their way. 3rd ...the ban china technology because aus are just lapdogs for US because they have superior 5G technology and all business was following chinas supreme technology..yet the yanks have their superior spying satellite and can spy on anyone and yet their US social media like facebook, google and more collect users data and then sell it to donald trumps election campaign and the selling of users data from facebook to cambridge analytica. Because chinas technogy like tik tok is many times better than US and taking all their revenue, the white nations are just getting desperate every day.
Looks like communism is outdoing oathetic white democracy jsut like denocracy of colonised sri lanka where government lost power and over run...what a joke and not surprised
