Neato Could someone give me 5 million AU dollars, please?

So Australia is selling a decommissioned Oberon sub. All the fancy top secret stuff has been taken out but it’s a working sub. I just need about 5 million Au dollars to buy it. How cool would it be to own a combat sub. I like how they list the specs on the Ebay page.

“She is armed with a McDonnell Douglas Sub Harpoon ship-to-ship missile system, six 21 inch bow torpedo tubes taking the Gould Mk 48 Mod 4 dual purpose wire-guided torpedo, and carries a total of 20 ship-to-ship missiles and torpedoes. She carried a crew of eight officers and 56 other ranks.”

Nice. Now someone just give me 5 million dollars so I can buy the thing.

I saw this on Make.
