In this special edition of the Defence Connect podcast, Defence Connect’s Phil Tarrant, Liam Garman, and Steve Kuper unpack the key takeaways from the Defence Strategic Review — and how they will impact the defence industry.
- The hosts analyse how the Defence Strategic Review will impact Australia’s land, air, sea, space, and cyber capabilities — identifying which programs are at risk and which will gain from Australia’s renewed force structure.
- The podcast then unpacks how the Defence Strategic Review forms part of Australia’s whole-of-government national security framework, before discussing how the Commonwealth can better integrate with our AUKUS partners.
