A rear admiral appeared to become frustrated when he was asked whether submarines commissioned by the Australian government could last more than 20 minutes under water by One Nation Senator Pauline Hanson.

“Is it true that pump-jet submarines can only stay underwater for 20 minutes?” Hanson asked.

“I assure you they can last for longer than 20 minutes,” Rear Admiral Greg Sammut said. “A pump jet is a form of propeller, it has no bearing on how deep a submarine can go, how long it can stay under water.”

The senator was inquiring about plans for 12 new vessels, which will be built by French shipbuilder Naval Group, SBS reported.
