AUKUS is here. Is this nuclear sub deal worth it?

It’s been all over the news: we’re buying nuclear submarines. The subs are set to be world-leading with Australia becoming only the seventh country in the world to have them, but we won’t get them for at least a decade– and they are coming at an astronomical price: $368 billion.

In this episode, we speak to Australian Strategic Policy Institute Director and defence expert Bec Shrimpton, to find out why buying these submarines is so important.
