collins has tested AIP and has a unit on a pallet at osborne, it was found not to enhance the operational goal
probability at this stage is that the new sub is going to be hydrogen powered
i suggest the reference to AIP is qualified as to it not being existing common meaning

This needs to be retitled. It's an article on the Collins Class Replacement Program, of which the Attack Class was eventually selected. There should be a seperate article on the Attack Class itself. 45.248.48.136 ( talk) 08:01, 25 March 2021 (UTC)
With the cancellation of the French contract is this page still relevant? If it is kept then shouldn't the focus be on the AUUKUS Group, and the work that comes out of that? 人族 ( talk) 03:39, 16 September 2021 (UTC)
Of course it is still relevant. It was a massive procurement project that was cancelled for important commercial and geopolitical reasons. That all needs to be recorded. Mark83 ( talk) 04:40, 16 September 2021 (UTC)
I'm confused about the cost. The $90 AUD billon figure has been widely quoted. However, looking at a Virginia class nuke sub, cost here (from wiki) is $3.4 billion USD. Twelve would be 40.8 billion USD, or 56 billion AUD. So how did a conventional submarine cost out at 90? (1.6X nuke cost). Also I thought the $90 billion figure was just to purchase, not the life cycle cost.
