probs a bad idea jumping into bed with them re AUKUS then, no? They NEED pine gap. About time we start to leverage that. Or at least not piss off the only viable 3rd party vendors being the french.

The Japanese would be viable vendors, were it not for the WW2 connotations of Japanese submarines being politically unpalatable to the kinds of hypernationalists who care about these things.

Apparently Germany and Sweden also build decent submarines.
