Japan, Australia launch defence technology projects

by Jon Grevatt

Japan and Australia have launched two long-term projects to research defence science and technologies.

The four-year programmes are led by Japan's Acquisition, Technology & Logistics Agency (ATLA) and Australia's Defence Science and Technology Group (DSTG). They include joint work on autonomous vehicles and marine hydrodynamics, with the latter linked to a previous joint project undertaken during 2015–19.

ATLA told Janes that the “multivehicle autonomy” aims to support the development of technologies that enable unmanned systems to operate in difficult terrain and threat conditions without GPS signals or map information.
