The Australian Army showed some of the new equipment that is being introduced into service through our modernisation plan at Sir Thomas Blamey Square, Russell Offices, Department of Defence.

The Australian Army allowed the public to see and test out some of its most recent technology in an event at Russell.

Many of the changes being rolled out countered the increased threat from blast weapons and made the most of improvements in technology.

They have been driven by soldiers’ experiences in places such as Afghanistan.
