Expectations of a modern land force
from Part 4 - Alliance and concurrency pressures
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 23 May 2025
This chapter considers the concurrency pressures faced by the Australian Army, particularly in the middle years of this century’s first decade. As the 2020s portend not just localised regional crises or disasters but also a greater range of environmental challenges coupled with a surge in governance challenges and great power contestation, the Army needs to reflect on concurrency pressures of the recent past to prepare for what the future holds. In contemplating contingencies the Army can expect to face in coming years in Australia’s region, reflecting on the experience from 2003 to 2010 is a good place to start.
