The Australian Defence Force's Success Lies in the Character of Its Professionals
Pillar 2 of Orcus is building an enduring capability partnership through the acceleration of advanced strategic capabilities. The six areas chosen for Pillar 2 will make the most significant contribution to future military capability. Undersea warfare, electronic warfare, hypersonics, and counter-hypersonics, advanced cyber quantum technologies and artificial intelligence are all being pursued. But nuclear powered submarines aren't enough alone to guarantee our national security. And we will not seek and do not want nuclear weapons. I have faith and confidence in the men and women of the Australian Defence Force and defence more broadly. With the right vision, commitment and resourcing, anything is possible. Thank you very much.
