AUKUS triumph: Japanese subs to return to Sydney Harbour for first time since World War II

AUKUS has added yet another member, as Japan joins the deal to take over the production of the submarines after America decided they didn’t want to. These new Japanese submarines are a historic deal, with them being the first Japanese submarines Australia has seen since World War II.

“Australia and Japan have a long history with submarines,” said PM Albanese, “we have seen what they can do first hand and are excited to get our hands on them, in like thirty years time, maybe.”

“This deal is a sign of how much both countries have grown in the last century and our ability to come together to independently work together, when America tells us to.”

The Australian Prime Minister said he is excited to commit to receiving the Japanese submarines, until we change plans in two years time like we did with the American submarines and the French submarines.
