Trump AUKUS review: Expert urges Australian defence companies not to get ahead of themselves

This comes amid US President Donald Trump's upcoming review of the AUKUS security partnership.
'Quite clearly, Australian companies would be concerned about the review; however, I think it is important to not let ourselves get ahead of where we are right now,' Mr Clark told Sky News host Ed Boyd.
'It is not an unusual event for governments to do reviews.
'I would think that the Trump administration would be remiss if they actually weren't doing the review into AUKUS.'
