France Joins AUKUS Submarine Program

Under extended plans, France will join the AUKUS submarine program. This will see advanced nuclear-powered attack submarines built for Australia, United Kingdom and France. The United States is also providing key elements, including interim submarines for the Royal Australian Navy. [...]

The French government has joined the previously trinational AUKUS submarine program. Australia, the United Kingdom and the United States are already involved in the 368 billion dollar project. [...]

It is understood that the submarines will be built in a new facility exactly halfway between Southampton and Cherbourg. [...] The completed submarines will then be shipped by rail via the Suez Canal to Australia.
