The Army in Motion philosophy necessitates a force that is continuously adapting to an everchanging environment, taking guidance from its core strengths and principles, yet always remaining open to developing new ways of employing capabilities.
In this episode of Defence Connect Insight Podcast, host Phil Tarrant is joined by the Chief of Army, Lieutenant General Rick Burr, AO, DSC, MVO, to discuss how he’s gearing the Australian Army to respond to current geo-strategic challenges, while concurrently preparing it to navigate the nation’s emerging future.
LTGEN Burr explains how his team is working to support the COVID-19 response, what opportunities have arisen in terms of improving resilience in Australia’s supply chain, and how industry can best support the delivery of Army’s existing and future capabilities.
