Fleet Command Submarines (SSCN)

Fleet Command Submarines (SSCN)
The Fleet Command Submarines are the largest and most powerful submarines ever built. There are three vessesls in the class, with generally one deployed, one undergoing readying phase and the third in its long term maintenance period. The deployed vessel acts as the Fleet Flagship whilst deployed. The vessels are home ported at Fleet Base South near Adelaide, South Australia.

AE2030 Class SSCN
The three vessels of the AE2030 Class owe their heritage to the cold war Soviet Typhoon class of ballistic missile submarine. Two vessels take the names of the first two Australian submarines, both lost during World War One with the third following in that historic sequence;
 * HMAS AE1
 * HMAS AE2
 * HMAS AE3

Command
The vessels fall outside of the regular expeditionary fleet commands and are under direct tasking by Naval HQ (NHQ) linked to Australian Strategic Command and the Global Strike Command. They generally operate individially and are extremely covert in their activities.
