Australia set to order Oberon class submarines with Adams destroyers
Senator Gorton announced Australia will receive Oberon class submarines, built in Britain, with the United States no longer producing conventional subs. The plan includes four additional Charles F Adams destroyers, targeting delivery from Admiralty in December 1965, with costs around £5.6 million per ship after spares. The subs will join the Royal Navy and US programs, serving for training and potential combat stealth against surface shipping and invasion routes.
