Australian submariners top their classes in US officer course in managing nuclear subs

The US “technology sharing” its Virginia-class submarines “wouldn’t be happening” if the country didn’t trust Australia to be able to handle them, says Sky News Washington Correspondent Annelise Nielsen.  US President Joe Biden mentioned the Australian submariners already undertaking the US officer course in managing nuclear submarines - there are three of the top cohort that are going to be on one of the Virginia-class submarines as of July this year.
