Critique of the Australian Government's new Defence Industrial Development Strategy by Grumpy Strategists Marcus Hellyer & Michael Shoebridge. Discussion on undermining local companies, increasing dependence on foreign firms, and lack of industry engagement. Exploration of national sovereignty, crisis response, and the importance of a strong domestic defense industry.
