LAND 121 Phase 3B/5B is delivering medium and heavy field vehicles, modules and trailers as well as the associated support systems. The vehicles will replace the Australian Defence Force's (ADF) Mack and Unimog vehicles which have been in service since the early 1980s, and will enhance performance and protection for the ADF’s logistic support capability by providing uniformity throughout the fleet. 

The project is delivering Combat Radios and ancillary equipment as an upgrade to Land Force. A mature support system for the new generation Combat and Tactical Data Radios will also be established.

Content is current as at April 2023.

The LAND 75 Phase 3.4 Battlefield Command Support System (BCSS) project will provide a digital command and control support system to enhance combat capability of the Australian Army through supporting timely and quality decision-making in the land tactical environment. The BCSS project will also deliver a Battle Management Systems (BMS) capability to equip a Battle Group (BG).

The project delivers a modernised Geospatial Support System for the joint land force, capable of collecting, managing, analysing and disseminating geospatial data and imagery. This further enables and improves rapid terrain understanding and situational awareness, navigation, and mission management systems on both domestic and overseas operations.

AIR 8000 Phase 2 was approved to replace the retired Caribou capability and provide the Australian Defence Force (ADF) with an enhanced intra-theatre and regional airlift capability through acquisition of a fleet of ten Light Tactical Fixed Wing aircraft. The C-27J Spartan is based on the original Alenia G-222 design, re-engineered with modern engines and avionics and can operate in remote and austere environments with a useful payload, range, in-theatre survivability and ability to operate from rudimentary airstrips. 

The Australian Government approved project AIR 6000 Phase 2A/2B to acquire 72 F-35A Lightning II aircraft, also known as the Joint Strike Fighter, along with associated weapons, spares, support equipment, and infrastructure.

Australia’s F-35A fleet has replaced the F/A-18A/B Hornet. The F-35A Lightning II, in concert with the F/A-18F Super Hornet and the E/A-18G Growler, is a potent air combat capability that provides the Royal Australian Air Force with critical air combat power to meet Australia’s needs beyond 2030.

AIR5077 Phase 5A is an approved project intended to assure the E-7A Wedgetail’s near term ongoing capability requirements by fitting mandatory military and civil compliance upgrades. Key systems being upgraded include:

• Identification Friend or Foe (IFF) transponder and interrogator
• Cryptographic systems
• Communications
• Navigation / GPS systems

This project will provide the Australian Defence Force with an upgrade to the Airborne Early Warning and Control (AEW&C) capability.

Project AIR5349 Phase 6 was initiated to support the next series of major Royal Australian Air Force EA-18G Growler upgrades and associated fundamental inputs to capability elements, required to ensure Airborne Electronic Attack Capability remains effective through to the planned withdrawal date. AIR5349 Phase 6 comprises the following upgrades:

Project AIR5431 Phase 2, Fixed Defence Air Traffic Control Surveillance Sensors (FDATCSS), will introduce 9 new fixed Air Traffic Control (ATC) sensors and three independent Automatic Dependant Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) ground stations. The fixed ATC sensor system is made up of a mix of sensor (primary and secondary surveillance radars) and processing hardware, software, radar towers, radomes, and associated electronic systems.

The AIR5431 Phase 1 Project is delivering a Deployable Defence Air Traffic Management and Control System (DDATMCS) comprising 2 mobile systems and one larger transportable system. Each of the three systems are made up of a mix of surveillance radars, shelters, Project Land 121 vehicles and associated electronic systems.

The DDATMCS will replace the Transportable Air Surveillance Radar (TASR) that was previously in service with the Royal Australian Air Force.
