Speaking from the facility in the port-town of Barrow-in-Furness north of Manchester, Mr Albanese praised the economic benefits of the deal, likening it to the post-war boom of the car industry in its potential creation of jobs and benefits for communities and other industries.

"We regard the development of an advanced, highly sophisticated manufacturing capability in Australia as having implications not just for our defence but for other industries as well, and I see this as being very similar to what the car industry provided for Australia in the post-war period," Mr Albanese said during a press conference alongside the UK's Defence Secretary Ben Wallace.
