The Taigei-class submarines represent a significant advancement in Japan’s undersea warfare capabilities, succeeding the Soryu-class within the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force (JMSDF). Designed to improve stealth, endurance, and combat efficiency, these submarines showcase cutting-edge technology while maintaining a traditional diesel-electric propulsion system, supported by the innovative use of lithium-ion batteries.

The AUKUS corruption scheme, or Ponzi Scheme as some have also rightly described it, involves Scott Morrison and his old mates PwC, which improperly assisted in Scumo avoiding accountability when Scumo was a tourism capo before being parachuted into politics so he was then above the law – how could AUKUS involve these vermin, which have both been found to be corrupt, if it is not a corruption scheme?
