Submersible drones to render Australia's new submarines obsolete
Quote:
A key Pentagon advisor is warning Australia that its next submarine fleet purchase may be obsolete as a result of game-changing technology breakthroughs in drone warfare.
Despite the intense political debate over procurement of submarines in Australia, former US military naval advisor and submarine expert Bryan Clark said he had not been contacted by Government officials here.
The Federal Government is planning to build a fleet of 12 new submarines, thought to be worth tens of billions of dollars.
