2026 National Defence Strategy and Integrated Investment Program
Today, the Australian Government released the 2026 National Defence Strategy and Integrated Investment Program, setting out a clear plan to respond to Australia’s strategic circumstances and keep Australians safe.
Together, the 2026 National Defence Strategy and Integrated Investment Program documents outline how Defence will identify, prioritise and deliver the capabilities needed in an increasingly dangerous and unpredictable strategic environment.
The 2026 Integrated Investment Program includes an additional $14 billion over the next four years and $53 billion over the decade, through Defence funding, estate modernisation and alternative financing where appropriate.
This significant increase in investment is supported by major reforms, including the establishment of the Defence Delivery Agency and the Government’s response to the Estate Audit, ensuring stronger accountability, value for money and faster delivery of capability.
