What you do with the tools you have and how those tools synergize with the wider defense strategy makes a much larger difference. On paper the first German tanks were fairly shite compared to the french offerings. But they used them much better in WW2. Same reason why the best armed military ran away from Vietnam and Afghanistan, they didn't develop proper counter strategies to insurgency operations.

      Or fucking healthcare, education, infrastructure, jesus, there are a lot of things which that 40 billion could be spent on other than submarines which we will most likely never use. That being said, in terms of recent defence spending, this is more sensible than the many billions we spent on the F-35's, considering the hornets still function perfectly well (despite their age). I say it is more sensible, because, for a vessel designed for stealth, you'd rather it not be described as an underwater lawn mower, as the current Collins Class subs have been.

      The total development of the F35 came to right around 1 trillion dollars. They consistantly got shit on by F16 in dogfights. There was a computer simulation of, I think it was 5-6 F35's, and against 5-6 of China's planes over the South China Sea and 1 F35 came back.

    So, the Japanese submarines became French submarines, but they had to alter the design because we weren’t going to have nuclear submarines, so the French nuclear submarines had to be modified so that they were no longer nuclear. Then we abandoned the whole thing , paid the french a lot of money for not letting them build our submarines because we are going to buy nuclear submarines from the English …
    Or maybe we will buy them from the Americans …
