Australia’s Navy faces overhaul after defence plan report
Melbourne December 11 The Senate received the annual report of the Director of the Naval Forces. It warns that until a defence sphere with Imperial authorities is agreed, war preparation remains provisional and full reorganization is needed before the fleet can play a proper defence role. The report notes aging vessels and outlines new Australian designs by J Hiles for weather suited ships with greater range and torpedo capacity. Lower speed could strengthen hull and armament, while a principal threat remains raiding cruisers up to four ships with landing forces of about a thousand men.
