Strategy | A partnered future

This strategy will move Defence further towards a future where S&T is delivered through a more streamlined process.

Good ideas will become Defence capabilities in a timeframe that matches the rapid rate of technological change. Trusted relationships between Defence scientists and engineers, Australian universities and industry, and international partners will be formed from the outset to ensure early buy-in, mitigate potential disconnects in innovation pathways and shorten the time taken to translate innovative thinking into a Defence capability advantage.

To realise this vision, the Defence S&T Strategy introduces three strategic pillars: One Defence S&T capability; Brilliant people, collaborative culture; and Outstanding research infrastructure powering innovation.

A mix of Defence scientists and uniformed personel undertaking war gaming.
