Divers from the U.S. Navy and Royal Australian Navy prepare to conduct diving operations in support of the Virginia-class fast-attack submarine USS Vermont (SSN 792) during a scheduled Submarine Maintenance Period (SMP) at HMAS Stirling, Western Australia, Australia, Nov. 10. This historic SMP marks the first time a U.S. nuclear-powered submarine has undergone a maintenance period in Australia by Australian civilians, demonstrating the progress made in developing Australia’s ability to operate, maintain, and care for conventionally armed, nuclear-powered attack submarines.
