Australia's Future SSN-AUKUS Nuclear Weapons

In Australia's future SSN-AUKUS case these UK designed SSGNs are likely to feature VLS and beams larger than the current Astutes' 11.3m. These would be more than adequate to accommodate a missile the 9.86m size of the old Polaris A3 MIRVed ballistic missile. These A3s had a range of 4,600km - more than adequate to hit Beijing from a launch point east of the Japanese home islands.
