I had to look it up

I think it's the Australia continent, but surely Antarctica too (unless Russia is hiding subs down there)

So any nuclear boats would cause a targeting problem for Australia ... if they could just hold off on their final decision a few more years. We could sell them some submarine drones that don't care what country your from as long as you are in their waters illegally.

Would they be able to crew them even if they had them. They had difficulty in achieving sufficient crew numbers for the six Collins Class as far as I'm aware?
