Episode description
Mark Stross discusses how Australia backed out of their French Submarine Contract in search of better technology. France considers it "a stab in the back", as Australia tears up this deal worth more than 50 billion Australian dollars because of delays, cost overrides, and.... because they'd rather have US-made nuclear submarine technology. That's a win for US.
