So proud of this man!!

One of the many cool things I get to do in this job is to go to places like the European Space Agency and meet super cool people like Astro Kate!

Der Designated Marksman ist ein Präzisionsschütze, der bei #TalismanSabre2023 Entfernungen abdeckt, die ein #Schütze mit dem #Gewehr G36 nicht mehr erreichen kann. Er schließt die Lücke in der Zielaufklärung im #Heer zwischen G36-Schütze und Scharfschütze.

As one of my Australian social media friends has remarked: “Bushmasters are the underdog hero of the war: tough, versatile, agile and save lives.”

Extremely grateful to the Australian political leadership for announcing another 30 Bushmaster Protected Mobility Vehicles for Ukraine, which now make a total fleet of 120.

It’s been an excellent team work of the Ukrainian President, Foreign and Defence Ministers, Ukraine’s MoD Strategic Comms team, the relentless Australian-Ukrainian community and many others.

Most importantly it would not happen without the Australian Prime Minister, Deputy Prime Minister, Foreign Minister and the continuous support and encouragement from the Labor and Coalition MPs.

[Anthony Albanese @AlboMP]

I’ve just met with President @ZelenskyyUa and confirmed we’ll provide 30 more Australian-made Bushmaster Protected Mobility Vehicles to support Ukraine.

This new military assistance package takes the total number of Bushmasters committed to 120.

[Jessica ward @JessPixWard]

Another day, another great announcement!! 🇦🇺 will stand with 🇺🇦 for as long as it takes.

[Vasyl Myroshnychenko @AmbVasyl]

Fantastic news from Vilnius!

Australia has committed another 30 Bushmasters for Ukraine 🇺🇦🇦🇺

Many thanks @AlboMP @RichardMarlesMP @SenatorWong

We’ve signed an in-principle agreement to build Boxer Heavy Weapon Carriers for Germany in Queensland.

The project will create well paid manufacturing jobs for Australians.

And mean a boost of more than $1 billion to the Australian economy.

Today I’m in Berlin announcing one of the biggest defence deals in Australian history.
