They announced the first AUKUS Pillar II Signature Project: developing cutting-edge payloads and enabling systems for AUKUS partners' Uncrewed Undersea Vehicles (UUVs), with delivery starting in 2027.

Additionally, "This month I authorized the establishment of Naval Support Activity Stirling, Submarine Squadron Three, and the lead maintenance activity to support SRF‑West. This means the first U.S. Navy sailors will begin arriving in Western Australia later this year.” - Secretary Hegseth

"Our partnership remains a cornerstone in ensuring a resilient and secure space domain." 🚀

It was a pleasure to welcome General B. Chance Saltzman, Chief of Space Operations, United States Space Force, to Canberra and Sydney.

During his visit to Canberra, General Saltzman signed a Joint Statement of Intent with Chief of Joint Capabilities, Lt Gen Susan Coyle, reaffirming the strong and enduring partnership between the US and Australia in the space domain, met with Admiral David Johnston AC, Chief of the Australian Defence Force (Defence Australia), and laid a wreath during a moving Last Post Ceremony at the Australian War Memorial.

In Sydney, General Saltzman spoke at AmCham where he discussed U.S. Space Force priorities and the agency’s structure, strategic direction, and evolving role within the broader space domain and U.S. military. While at the United States Studies Centre, General Saltzman emphasized close collaboration with industry and the factors that drive innovation, capability development, and long-term investment. He also took part in a traditional Aussie pastime - going to the AFL to watch the Sydney Swans take on Collingwood Football Club.
