January 2018 Donor Report: Table of Influences on Submarine Programs

Hi Donors

I have just sent you Submarine Matters' January 2018 Donor Report: TABLE OF INFLUENCES ON SUBMARINE PROGRAMS

This is the final Donor Report. 

I've enjoyed writing and sending Donor Reports, but from a semi-professional viewpoint, look forward to accepting any commissions for specific topics.

Comments...will center more on the US, China and Russia than other submarine nations.

Please check your spam bin if you don't see it in your IN box.

Cheers
