Adelaide is predicted to play a “vital role” in the construction of Australia’s first fleet of nuclear submarines, says Sky News Reporter Monique Van Der Heyden.
Construction of South Australian technical colleges have begun to prepare students in related industries.
Students in years 10 to 12 will be equipped with the skills needed to work in the defence industry, including how to build ships and submarines” Ms Van Der Heyden said.

Wonder if we will give these nuclear subs to Ukraine to launder on the black market along with everything else we have sent them.
Might need more batteries and solar panels.
How many homeless people can you fit in a submarine?
Whatever you think the price/time is for a nuclear fleet.
Double it
Another no nothing or done anything professional politician with absolutely NO idea. The Subs will NOT be built here ever.
Well, it's a good idea, but it's likely going to go very wrong.
It will likely be compromised via CCP cameras contractors and students. I really don't think we can run this securely.
All subs are to built with waterproof cardboard and bike power for underwater use nurf guns will be used and water pistols candles will be installed and flash lights for batteries a expert must provide the ping noise for other subs solar power windpowered underwater currents only that way there is no carbon footprint specialised pro noun training by deadly woke yelling will put the enemy down lol 😂 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣
Build it fast so we can give it to Ukraine.
How about give people that need a job now the training needed instead of people that won't need a job for several years?
And it's NUCLEAR!!! NOT NUCULAR
If the Labor Party push jobs for the corrupt Labour Unions in SA, then we will NEVER see working subs. Just as the Colin's Class subs, they are STILL having ongoing mechanical issues.
I'd be interested in how much per Capita, or GDP Australia is throwing away on their military to protect our (US) proxy wars.
New subs have been kicked down the road for decades. Nothing will change.
Right next door to a chinese owed place
Politicians and unions were always going to hijack this, there are billions of dollars in graft at stake here. Australia should pull the plug on the whole thing right now. You're never going to get submarines, it's just a question of how much money disappears in the process. The only real possibility is to get some used boats from the US Navy, but no one likes that idea because there is nothing to steal.
I am sick and tired of hearing about submarines and Adelaide in the same sentence. If you want submarines than have the damned things built in a country that knows how to get shit done and that surely aint Australia.
Bloody hell, in 10-15 years the subs themselves will be redundant.
Lease or share some subs from USA etc, short term?
Why wouldn't Australia move forward with 'defence shield' tech and A.I. as a priority
The build site is right near a power station. So when the nuclear reactors are up and running just plug them into Adelaide's grid.
WOW we are taking part in building a out of date obsolete submarine!! thats clever Albo !! we need them now ! Idiot!! buy existing ones from Germany !! Fool!
Great to build the colleges we need to stop importing 60+ % of our engineers from overseas, but stop lying to us about nuclear boats, they will be obsolete before any are built in Australia. The pollies are just lying to us, we are 50 yrs away from building a nuc boat.
