Former Army director-general Brigadier Ian Langford says maintaining public confidence in AUKUS is just as important as delivering Australia's future nuclear-powered submarines. “We’ve got 30-plus years of delivery as it relates to Australia’s future undersea capability and critical deterrence.” “The issue of social license and public support for AUKUS is as fundamental as the delivery of the submarines themselves. “What’s important is the broader public discourse about how important this capability is for the future defence of Australia.”
