"Australia has the option of becoming a nuclear power through a deal with the United States. It has been claimed Australia will gain nuclear weapons and atomic expertise in the deal.
"A former government science adviser says the new Au$600 million nuclear reactor will ensure Australia has the capability to start a nuclear weapons program.
"In the event of a regional crisis, Australia will have access to tactical nuclear weapons from the US. This deal is Australia's insurance in case the US does not come to Australia's aid in the event of war."
