Over the next 20 years Defence anticipates spending in the order of $AUD 100 Billion on guided weapons. Current foreign based supply chain vulnerabilities and increasingly unstable geopolitical factors, have lead to a requirement for Australia to rapidly expand its domestic guided weapons manufacturing capabilities.
An Australian sovereign guided weapons enterprise will need:
- Missile assembly, test and verification
- Flexible & adaptive manufacturing systems (e.g Industry 4.0)
- Seeker component production (e.g. RADAR & Imaging Infra-Red)
- Guidance & Control component production
- Rocket motor production
- Warhead production
- Fuze production (precision electro-mechanical)
- Energetic materials production (primary/secondary explosives)
- Metal parts fabrication (high strength / high tolerance)
- Composite parts fabrication (high strength / high tolerance)
- Research and development (Industry / Defence / Academia)
- Hypersonic R&D
- Testing ranges for LAT and FAT (including maritime ranges)
- Storage/transport/logistics/infrastructure
- Aerospace / defence grade materiel supply
- Computer simulation modelling for weapon danger areas
- Support equipment & container manufacture
- Electronics manufacture (robust, mil spec)
- Safety Critical software development
- Complex Supply Chain Management
- AS9100 Quality Management Systems
- Robust & Adaptive Control design
- Non-Destructive Testing
- Environmental Testing
- Technology education and skills training
