Without supply chain resilience, Australian defence is brittle
Australia’s most advanced military capabilities are fundamentally tethered to the resilience of its most basic civilian supply chains. For decades, Australia’s national prosperity and security have been built on the foundations of a stable, globalised world. As an island continent, it has leveraged its geographic position to become a major trading nation, exporting vast natural resources and importing the complex manufactured goods that underpin a modern economy.
