Mostly from hearing about the slow slow rate of building Nuclear subs in the US, and UK. Especially compared to China's much faster rate.
Apart from building Nuclear Sub bases near Perth, I doubt we'd even get just one sub in 20 years... We're happy to berth US and UK subs.
Hell, in 20 years the face of Warfare will be at another level, like what's happening with Drones in the air, Dones under water, Drone like remote controlled Iranian water craft packed with explosives ... 'Asymetrical Warfare' is developing.
I do like those Hi Tech Frigates we going to get from Japan, at a fraction of the cost of just one nuclear Submarine, and a reliable partner, unlike the orange maniac!
Our new Bushmasters are brilliant with powerful lasers to fry enemy drones, and some heavy duty missiles with long ranges, for our big country. I really like them and other innovative Aussie military assets. Crikey, we sure punch above our weight.
Many are now seeing China as another reliable trade partner with many nations shaking off the toxic US shackles. The world is sick of Trump's Chaos and backstabbing of once Allies. We owe him nothing, in fact he owes the whole planet hundreds of Trillions of Dollars for the great harm he's caused our World. For future generations too, not that that'd bother Trump. Drill, drill, drill, ...
Ironically Trump's ham fisted attack on Iran is giving Green energy options a good boost. That's good and EV sales are doing nicely.
The Devil saved him from that assassin's bullet, imho.
It was satisfying to hear German Chancellor Friedrich Merz
who sharply criticized U.S. President Donald Trump regarding the ongoing U.S.-led war on Iran, accusing the administration of having "no truly convincing strategy" and allowing the U.S. to be "humiliated" by Tehran.
President Trump lashed out at Merz on social media, defending the war as necessary to prevent a nuclear Iran and accusing the Chancellor of supporting Iranian nuclear ambitions.
Trump further told Merz to focus on the Russia-Ukraine conflict and to stop "interfering". 
Free Speech, ok !? The criticism stems from the significant economic impact the conflict is having on Germany, particularly with the closure of the Strait of Hormuz driving up energy costs.
This public feud highlights a major fracture in transatlantic relations between the U.S. and its European NATO allies under the new Merz administration in Germany.
Make America Alone Again.
Note Trump is walking in front of Jesus, just like he actually did walking in front of Queen Elizabeth II inspecting her royal guards.
