PHNSY & IMF is supporting the establishment of Submarine Rotational Force-West (SRF-W), which is the first phase of the Australia, United Kingdom, and U.S. (AUKUS) security partnership’s Pillar One initiative that is delivering conventionally armed nuclear-powered attack submarines to Australia. Australian maintenance personnel are currently at PHNSY to develop their skills to build and sustain nuclear-powered submarines, building on previous visits to PHNSY and Barrow-in-Furness shipyard in the United Kingdom late last year. PHNSY is the largest, most comprehensive Fleet repair and maintenance facility between the U.S. West Coast and the Far East and provides a capable, ready and "Fit to Fight" Fleet.
