France prioritizes anyone over the UK but mainly focuses on itself and to hell with anyone else, its why we have been arch rivals for over 1000 years.

The truth is that France lost this deal.

Call it whatever you want, just don't let the door hit you in the back side.

Basically the RAN doctrine and strategic outlook changed substantially and conventional submarines no longer were capable of fulfilling the role.

Pay before this time

Right now there’s nothing in the wind on that score

I would also suggest it’s highly improbable as well given current state of affairs

If anything I can see a bigger lifex for the Collins class which would be cheaper than waiting for France to put something on the table
