Purchasing a new fleet of Combat Reconnaissance Vehicles for the Australian Defence Force (ADF), the Turnbull Government is set to create 1450 jobs across Australia, including 330 in Queensland, 170 in Victoria and 140 in New South Wales.

Manufacturing and delivery will be executed by the Australian workforce, using Australian steel.

Spending $5.2 billion to replace the Army’s current light armoured vehicle fleet, the new additions are projected to be a national enterprise seeing Rheinmetall work with over 40 Australian companies and Australian industry securing two thirds of the total investment.
