If we had build 3-5 of these instead of spending billions $ on submarines, tanks, NS, stealth frigates, fighters, etc. who would be our enemy? We would have friends all over SE Asia by sailing these hospital ships to all the hotspots thru the years, like Tsunami, volcanic eruptions. SARs, Covid, and other wise providing free medical care to neighbouring countries who need it, how much goodwill would that have generated? Operating them and staffing them would still be a fraction of what we spend on defence today. Fucking stupid PAP
