More, Together. Defence Science and Technology Strategy 2030 (Australia)
Abstract
Defence science and technology (S and T) plays a critical role in Australia's defence and national security by ensuring that our forces maintain a capability edge. Defence research has yielded iconic capabilities such as the Black Box flight recorder, the Jindalee Operational Radar Network (JORN) and the Nulka active missile decoy. S and T support to operations, including the development of technology to counter improvised explosives, not only enhances operational outcomes but can also save lives. Expert advice supporting major Defence acquisitions - such as the Joint Strike Fighter and the Future Submarine - helps to shape future capabilities to meet Australias unique needs, and provides a basis for robust and contestable investment decision-making.
