Record entries for Australian Defence Exports Catalogue

A record 365 Australian defence industry businesses are featured in the 10th edition of the Australian Defence Exports Catalogue (the Catalogue), showcasing Australia’s export‑ready products, services and technologies to international partners. Deputy Secretary Capability Acquisition and Sustainment Group Chris Deeble, said the Catalogue plays a central role in promoting Australia’s sovereign defence capability and enabling export success. “Defence is committed to building and sustaining critical skills and capabilities locally, supporting our sovereign defence industrial base and delivering a future made in Australia,” Deeble said. “Exports strengthen Australia’s defence industrial base by increasing resilience, diversifying revenue streams and embedding Australian capability into global supply chains, ensuring Australian Defence Force personnel receive the capability they need at the pace required.” The Catalogue showcases strategically important sovereign capabilities to priority international partners, complementing the work of the Australian Defence Strategic Sales Office and supporting broader Defence export initiatives aligned with the 2026 National Defence Strategy and the Defence Industry Development Strategy. First Assistant Secretary Industry Engagement Michael Howell, said international engagement opportunities remain critical to connecting Australian industry with global partners. “Events such as Sea‑Air‑Space provide valuable opportunities to engage directly with international partners and to support meaningful conversations between Australian defence industry and global customers,” Howell said. “These engagements help build trusted relationships and support long‑term export opportunities for Australian businesses.” Available online or through mobile phone application, the 2026 Australian Defence Exports Catalogue, provides our international partners with a direct link to engaging with Australian defence industry.
