Australia Defense Market Outlook

The Australia defense market size reached USD 49.96 billion in 2023. The market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5% between 2024 and 2032, reaching almost USD 78.02 billion by 2032.

 

Key Takeaways:

  • As per industry reports, Australia's annual defense expenditure ranges from USD 25–30 billion, with a significant portion allocated to defense acquisition and sustainment.
  • The country's defense purchasing was reinforced in March 2016 by the Defence White Paper, outlining a USD 145 billion acquisition plan through FY 2025-26. Subsequently, the 2020 Defence Strategic Update introduced a ten-year USD 190 billion acquisition plan concluding in FY 2029-30, further fortifying Australia's defense planning and investment strategy.

 

Australia is poised to increase defense spending, driven by expanded acquisition programs focused on aircraft, submarines, naval vessels, and missiles. This strategic shift in the Indo-Pacific region is in response to China's military advancements and growing influence. The defense strategy emphasizes deterrence capabilities through new platform acquisitions. Key priorities include safeguarding national security, protecting regional stability, and upholding a rules-based Indo-Pacific order.

 

The Australia defense market is robust, with sectors like submarines, naval vessels, missiles, and unmanned aerial vehicles leading the way. The country is building a resilient defense industry, exporting innovative technologies, and supporting a capable Australian Defence Force (ADF). Collaboration with global partners, particularly the U.S., is central to Australia's defense strategy, underpinned by agreements like ANZUS, Five Eyes, and AUKUS.

 

AUKUS, announced in 2021, emphasizes technology collaboration beyond nuclear-powered submarines to include cyber capabilities, artificial intelligence, and quantum technologies. Australia's defense acquisition policy aims for increased expenditure, nuclear submarine acquisition, skills transfer, and in-country R&D to boost the defense industry. Recent strategic reviews reaffirm long-term defense acquisition plans, underscoring Australia's commitment to strengthening national security and regional stability while aiding the Australia defense market development.
