Australian Army

They may wear the same uniform but everyone in the Army has their own story.

PROTECTING THE INTERESTS OF AUSTRALIA AND OUR PEOPLE

Join a versatile and modern fighting force that maintains the security of Australia. Alongside the Navy and Air Force, the Australian Army protects Australia’s national interests on land, deterring threats to Australia’s sovereignty and, if necessary, defeating them. The Army is a professional military capability built upon service, courage, respect, integrity and excellence, employing advanced weaponry, vehicles and military technology.

HELPING COMMUNITIES AND SUPPORTING INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS In addition to defence, the Army supports a broad range of operations in Australia and overseas. This includes supporting international security and counter-terrorism initiatives, protecting our borders from illegal activity and incursions, supporting humanitarian and peacekeeping operations, and helping communities affected by natural disasters.

ADAPTING TO CHALLENGES

With potential threats coming from unexpected places, the Army adapts quickly to meet these complex challenges. This includes maintaining our ability to deploy effectively when required and investing in the latest military technology. We also provide world-class training to ensure all of our people are equipped with the skills to adapt to future strategic needs.
