    Australia is acquiring 29 new-build AH-64E Apaches as part of the Army's Armed Reconnaissance Helicopter Replacement Project (Land 4501 Phase 1) to replace its existing 22 Airbus Helicopters Tiger Armed Reconnaissance Helicopters. These in concert with the new Blackhawks means the Army has a functional air wing again.

    It’s actually 6 Hunter class frigates and 8 SSN submarines, 3 SSN will be Virginia class SSN with an option to buy 2 more then Australia will build their own under the AUKUS arrangement and that will be 8 SSNs. Australian at the end of the year, will announce the contractor to supply an additional 11 light frigates/ corvettes

    Thanks good summary. Australia has huge area of operations.
    Good recce, rapid mobility and significant strike capacity at range are needed as well as very capable ASW point and area air defence.
    More destroyers, P8s, Tritons, Ghost Bats long range strike aircraft clearly fit such requirements.
    There needs to be more focus on missiles. Area and point air defence (SAMs) for defence and long range missiles (ATACMs cruise missiles), glide bombs and artillery (eg. Ceasar) for the offence.
    Additionally, rear basing, dispersal and logistics, including munitions needs beefing up.
    The nuclear submarines unless armed with cruise missiles are a waste of money. Cruise missile capability would likely be better served through lower cost capabilities like Rapid Dragon.

    While the Australian Defence Force (ADF) may appear to be a robust and technologically advanced military force, a closer examination reveals several areas where its capacity may be overstated. Let's highlight these limitations:
    1. Limited Personnel for Comprehensive Defense Needs: Despite a relatively large budget against tax earnings, the ADF’s manpower is relatively modest for a country with such a vast landmass, extensive coastline, and large exclusive economic zone (EEZ) to patrol. With 57,346 full-time personnel and 32,049 reservists, the ADF lacks the personnel depth to sustain prolonged, large-scale operations or defend against simultaneous threats across multiple fronts. Many modern military actions require rapid deployments, continuous rotations, and enduring support, which the current personnel levels struggle to fulfil without high operational strain. As such, the northern sector of Australia is vulnerable to attack.
    2. Reliance on Allies, Especially the United States: Australia's defence strategy relies heavily on partnerships, notably with the United States, for force projection and deterrence against regional threats. This reliance exposes Australia to strategic vulnerabilities, as it means that in high-stakes conflicts-especially those in which the U.S. is not directly involved-the ADF could face severe constraints. This dependency on foreign alliances also leaves Australia vulnerable to shifts in foreign policy by allies, potentially compromising national security if support is withdrawn.
    3. Logistical and Supply Chain Challenges: Although Australia is attempting progress in military procurement and Indigenous defence manufacturing, it remains dependent on international suppliers for critical systems, parts, and advanced technologies. In a high-intensity conflict, supply chains could be disrupted, leading to equipment shortages, maintenance challenges, and gaps in operational readiness. As a result, the ADF may be slower to mobilise or sustain missions compared to larger, self-sufficient militaries in Asia. A critical element is fuel reserves.
    4. Geographical and Strategic Constraints: Australia's geographical isolation presents advantages and limitations. While the distance from potential threats can act as a deterrent, it also complicates rapid deployment and support for allied missions. In contrast to some regional militaries that can mobilise forces quickly within their zones of interest, the ADF faces long transit times for naval and air assets, limiting its ability to respond swiftly in crises, especially in the wider Indo-Pacific. The lack of true blue water aircraft carriers limits force projection.
    5. Aging Equipment and Expensive Upgrades: Many of the ADF’s core assets are nearing the end of their service life or require costly upgrades to remain effective. For instance, the Collins-class submarines, although capable, are becoming outdated and will require significant investments to ensure their continued viability until replacements are ready. (30 years +) Similarly, modernising other assets to keep pace with rapid technological advancements in the region represents an ongoing and expensive challenge, especially as other nations continue to invest in advanced and more numerous equipment.
    6. Budgetary Sustainability: Although Australia’s defence budget is considerable for a country of its size, defence spending is capped at around 2.04% of GDP, which may limit its ability to expand or modernise the ADF substantially in the long term. With defence costs-especially for cutting-edge technology and advanced platforms-increasing each year, maintaining the current operational readiness and capability level may strain national finances, potentially diverting funds from other critical areas.
    In summary, while the ADF is undoubtedly a capable and professional force, it operates under significant constraints that could limit its effectiveness in high-stakes or protracted regional conflicts. Its reliance on allies, logistical and personnel limitations, aging equipment, and budgetary constraints highlight Australia's challenges in maintaining a fully independent military capable of responding to all potential threats on its own terms. Australia was once considered fitted for but not with.

    I hope you are correct about there being only 3 Hunters ordered ?? There were originally 9 ordered but they are fat, underguned, problematic and hugely over budget and behind schedule. We need 3 more (updated) Hobarts and a dozen corvettes, i.e. Navantia Tasman Class.

    With the coming of the Armed Drones as used in Ukraine, Australia needs to take a serious look at these small armed drones. Training the Soldier could be a problem as these armed drones cost between $3000 to $20000. Losing a drone is a large expense. American Soldiers are being made to pay for any they damage. I hope the Australian Army doesn’t make a Soldier fill out an L&D report & have to pay.
    There are small drones, I have one costing under $100 that could be used for initial training. Getting the Soldier used to the Controller & using Video to fly the drone. Once the soldier is proficient in flying these small drones they then could move up to the Armed Drones. Start small first.
    I have seen the really tiny resonance drones & talked to the Soldiers who fly them. They tell me that the training does take some time & they are not cheap $6000, I believe.
    It’s just an idea.

    I love the ADF but It’s taken 20+ years for the Australian government to begin to modernise the ADF. Budget cuts, new governments have all contributed to the lack of foresight to plan. Lucky tech enhancements and large private investment by private companies has seen a surge in manufacturing in the last 10 years. If it wasn’t for the AUKUS agreement we wouldn’t have nuclear Subs. The F35s took a long time to develop and we now have almost a full fleet (still awaiting arrival of the last few) but even they’re now due for upgrades. The Offshore patrol vessels are plagued with setbacks and that was a failed project because our original Armidale class boats were a failure and undertasked to conduct border protection. Our Army still uses Vietnam era ASLAVS because the LAND 400 projects are still ongoing and new land vehicles are being pushed out slowly. The MRH90 helicopter was a failed project and now we don’t have any capability until new Blackhawks come online. The Army and Navy are using civilian companies and leasing helicopters and vessels just to conduct training and keep personnel qualified, The Navy has decommissioned numerous ships in the last few months due to the age of their vessels and on top of that, dwindling numbers of personnel have seen a shift to recruitment and retention because no one wants to work for the ADF anymore. Employment numbers are the lowest they’ve ever been. I’ve never seen a lower point of the ADF until now. Our forefathers would be turning in their graves and I hold high concerns for our future to deal with conflicts if we don’t have the equipment, money and most importantly the personnel.

The British employ the Indians Punjabs and Gurkhas to do the fighting and expand the British Empire. But their poorly trained army in Asia was soon massacars and capture by the Japanese.
