Not meaning to stir the pot here whatsoever but I also found it to be a little out of left field. That said, it also strikes me as the kind of program that could easily be changed or scrapped in the foreseeable future - for example with a change of Govt. If any of the grand plans detailed in the DWP are ever going to get the chop, I imagine this might be a prime candidate since it is essentially a "nice to have" rather than "need to have" capability - probably a ways to go before it's worth much thought.Right now I am asking about and questioning a capability that none of our major allies possess, that as far as I can see has come completely out of left field. I'm sorry if I am not able to instantly absorb and understand why we are planning to acquire a capability that to my knowledge has never been seriously suggested for the ADF before.
Just my 2c.
