BLUF

The Australian Army can now detect, track and defeat cruise missiles, aircraft, helicopters and drones using a networked ground-based system. Australian-designed radar and local sustainment strengthen the inner layer of national air defence.

Learning Outcomes

• Describe networked detection, tracking and engagement of airborne threats.
• Connect Australian-designed radar with sovereign sustainment and security.
• Explain how layered air defence protects personnel and infrastructure.
