Yes but the AUKUS fleet is going to grow

UK has a formidable sub surface force with the current Astute class

And incoming Dreadnaught class

How many Astute are on sea ? You have your answer. On paper it is a beautifull force, but in reality you are short. It's sad, really, even from a french point of view as we are strong ally and friends.

AUKUS ? We will have a lot of time to speak about AUKUS. My bet is that at the end Australia will have 8 second hand Virginia, none of them built in Australia.
Why ? cost, lack of specilized manpower, delay in nuclear reactor supply, etc...
