Senator WONG: Going quickly back to submarines, I want to go to the SPA, but I also want to ask the secretary something. I'm pretty sure I know how you will answer this, but I want to know whether or not there's been any engagement with the Dutch navy on their long-range submarine project. Mr Moriarty : Not to my knowledge. I will ask the Chief of Navy. Vice Adm. Noonan : I have not engaged with the Dutch navy regarding any submarines. We do work with the Dutch navy with respect to training. Currently we do our submarine command training with the Dutch navy. That's the extent of it.
