A settlement of around $830 million has been reached between the Naval Group and the Australian government over a scrapped submarine program.
The former government made the decision to discontinue the project last September after entering the AUKUS security alliance which granted Australia access to nuclear-powered submarines.
The French company released a statement saying “Naval Group and the Commonwealth of Australia have reached a fair and equitable settlement to bring a conclusion to the Future Submarine Program”.
