Submarines (Royal Australian Navy)

Submarines in the Royal Australian Navy are stealthy, advanced underwater vessels designed for underwater combat, surveillance, and reconnaissance. They operate silently beneath the surface, able to stay submerged for extended periods, providing strategic advantage and security. Equipped with sophisticated sonar, weapons, and communication systems, they can monitor maritime activity, protect national interests, and support the navy’s maritime operations. Their quiet operation allows them to evade detection, making them essential for defending Australia's maritime borders and contributing to regional stability.
