The funny thing about all of this is the now VCDS specifically told the major program doing northern infra that the RCN doesn't want any support equipment for the NOSH sites. The CCG has a laundry list of things that we could also use, but absolutely does not include the H2 and LOx required for the AIP.
So the GoC may build a few major northern hubs to sustain military operations in the Arctic, including things like diesel and aviation fuel deports, large jetties, repair depots etc but if the new subs need to refill their AIP after doing some northern ops they would need to go back to home port.
That's not something you can just drop a few tanks and call it a day, and the quanties needed aren't what you can chuck on a grey tail or whatever, so waiting for an about face
