In this episode of the Defence Connect podcast, Liam Garman, Robert Dougherty, and Stephen Kuper unpack the latest news in Defence and defence industry, discussing Australia’s industrial capacity for the development of maritime and guided weapons, as well as an ongoing mishap that has seen millions of emails intended for the US military sent to Mali.
- The trio begin the podcast by looking at the commissioning of the USS Canberra in Sydney and a recent US report that raises concerns about a maintenance backlog in the nuclear-powered submarine fleet.
- They then unpack revelations that a common spelling error threatens to expose sensitive US military information, with millions of misspelled email addresses destined for members of the US military and DOD sent to Mali.
- Garman, Kuper, and Dougherty wrap up the podcast discussing the latest developments in the land domain, including a recent live fire Boxer exercise.
