@CDF_Aust@ComdtADFA Heard you canned SANCOM and funding for team sports at ADFA. Strong start. Dont bother looking at the profligate waste of the ASA though. Clown.
@AlexLuck9 Go for a little trundle down to Osborne and feast your eyes on the T26 blocks about to be cut up for scrap. That’s the reward for cutting steel when you don’t have a mature design.
@graham_euan Have you always ignored lead indicators of mega- program failure, or are you suspending your better judgement to preserve extant benefits?
@DougCameron51@MichaelPascoe01 Peter Garrett is the worst possible appointment. Why couldn’t it by lead by someone recognised as unbiased and facts driven?
@Defence_blog Layered IAMD is important, but Kuwait’s threat profile is Iranian drones and BMs. NASAMs has no game against BMs and each AIM120 or 9X costs far more than a Shahed.
@AlexLuck9 Mr Trump must look longingly at AUS acquisitions processes where the Parliament has neither the means nor the morals to arrest expenditures on the chronically failing submarine enterpise. It’s debatable whether SSN-AUKUS or Trump Class is the more flawed industrial concept.
@MichaelS_SAA The entropy within the Submarines Enterpise is high and increasing; the major players have moved from collective goals to individual gratification. The moral question of crewing these with young Australians is vital but Marles and the cheer squad don’t have skin that game.
