Meh, we've been visiting them before. I'll take this opportunity to say why the Collins class are actually good.
The Collins class are the first modern submarines to have been designed and built in Australia. Remember the first ever U-boat sortie of WWI, and the troubles that they experienced? That's exactly what's happening to us, but on a somewhat smaller scale. It's trial and error.
Personally, I think we should focus on building a reliable sub, while building up the submarine fleet with foreign export types, like the type 209 U-boat.
