AUKUS Subs Get $4.6B Boost | Australia News
Description
Australia’s Labor party is pushing ahead with the massive AUKUS submarine deal, injecting an extra $4.6 billion into South Australia’s nuclear submarine construction yard — bringing its total funding to $8.5 billion. This $368 billion joint project with the US and UK isn’t just about building submarines; it’s a major job creator, expected to generate 10,000 new roles in the state, with over 1,100 already on-site. Defence Minister Richard Marles insists the project is vital for Australia’s future naval power and remains on track — even as political friction persists.
