Whike this is for Finland I often wonder why Australia doesn't do such a thing? (That's not an argument for or against doing it but a genuine question)

If the LNP/ALP are so concered about an invasion by China that they'll bankrupt the nation to buy a few token nuclear submarines.it seems beyond bizzare to me that the sort of preparedness in the article is not prioritised as well? Or is it becase the submarine thing is all dick waving and posturing for votes and has little to do with actual national defence ?

Ok, so it looks like you want to yell at the military kickbacks, and the fact that nations trade shiny death machines for stupid reasons. Fair enough but goddamn, doing it on a post on Finland military training? That's shoehorning it in.
