Applications have opened for the third edition of the Australian Military Sales Catalogue, providing an opportunity for Australian defence companies to showcase their capabilities around the globe.
Minister for Defence Christopher Pyne called on Australian defence companies to submit their applications for inclusion in the 2019 edition of the Catalogue.
“Australian companies have a proven track record of success in international markets, and can offer innovative and niche capabilities in support of foreign capability requirements,” Minister Pyne said.
“It is my aspiration that every allied defence minister has a copy of the 2019 Catalogue on their desk showcasing our great Australian capabilities.
While the Catalogue has traditionally focused on selling surplus ADF equipment, the 2018 edition of the Catalogue was expanded to include a defence industry section.
“This is a unique opportunity for Australian SMEs to promote their capabilities to our military allies: to utilise our overseas Australian Defence staff, extend the awareness of their products and services, and grow their export opportunities,” Minister Pyne added.
“I encourage every Australian defence company to submit their application to showcase their capabilities in the 2019 Catalogue.”
