Bringing discussion and research to the surface

Welcome to the new-look webpage of the Submarine Institute of Australia.

Established in 1999 and now widely recognised as the premier independent source of advice on submarine matters in Australia, the SIA has a vision that builds on the upcoming centenary of submarines (1914-2014).

Contrary to the first 100 years of submarines in RAN history when their participation in the Navy was periodic, the second 100 years requires a very determined and successful approach to sustaining and growing the submarine capability.
