Push for Australian crew to board US submarines for ‘training’
over 1 year in news
The Australian’s Cameron Stewart says the government would be supportive of putting Australian crew members on US submarine fleets for “training” before Australia receives a nuclear fleet.
“Australia hasn’t got crews that are trained for nuclear-powered submarines, of course, we don’t have any nuclear-powered submarines,” Mr Stewart said.
“It’s going to take quite a long time to get those crews through the pipeline.”
