Abstract

The article looks at issues arising from the Future Submarine Program of the Australian Department of Defence. The program of the Royal Australian Navy (RAN) has been faced with delays in government guidance and funding. The development of the submarines are part of Project Sea 1000, with the lead ship scheduled for deployment in 2025. In the 2009 Defence White Paper of the Australian government, the submarine will have longer range, greater patrol endurance and support for more missions.
