Lets see if I ve got your reasoning straight.

Its 6b AUS for both LHDs and the remaining 5b Aus for three F-100s

If so how does that jive with this?:

"At a cost of nearly $8 billion, and subject to successful contract negotiations, Navantia will work with the AWD Alliance (Defence Materiel Organization, ASC and Raytheon Australia ) to deliver three AWDs to the Royal Australian Navy. "

and this:

""Mr Howard said the navy would be equipped with three Navantia F100 air warfare destroyers worth a total of A$8 billion ($9.02 billion)."

Im confused at this point.
