My comment:
(a) The report stated the (George W.) Bush administration "provided Australia's navy with equipment to make its submarines run quieter."
(b) Royal Australian Navy has only six Collins class submarines at a facility at Rockingham, Western Australia (near Perth).
Collins class submarine

(Australian-built, diesel-electric; took its name from Australian Vice Admiral John Augustine Collins; due to technological difficulties, the lead ship Collins was not approved for operational deployments until 2000)

("Now, the noise problem in the Collins Class Submarine, the butt of jokes from just about every comedian in the country, may have been solved. It's been likened to an underwater washing machine")
