In this episode of the Defence Connect podcast, senior analyst Steve Kuper joins Liam Garman to unpack the Defence Strategic Review – illuminating areas for revision amid increasing global uncertainty.
- The pair begin the podcast analysing how this week’s federal budget aligns with the DSR, and whether the spending allocations match government rhetoric for a stronger defence force.
- Kuper then provides insight into how defence thinkers can rethink land, air and sea acquisition.
- The podcast wraps up with a discussion of how Australia can strengthen its northern bases to provide stronger national defence – and enable impactful projection.
