by Jonathan Pearlman (Editor)

The next issue of Australian Foreign Affairs explores the costs, risks and potential benefits of Australia's plan to buy, build and operate a fleet of nuclear-powered submarines. Lost at Sea looks at the ways in which the AUKUS undertaking is set to reshape the nation's military, economy, diplomacy and foreign relations, and at the consequences and alternatives if the project does not go according to plan.

Fascinating read on the current state of AUKUS, offering both sides of the argument. The essays on the strategic use of submarines was most interesting.
