MELBOURNE, Australia — Australian military leaders are scrambling to cobble together fresh air defense capabilities, as China’s missile arsenal is growing and Beijing’s warships have started showing up in Australasia.
Global companies offered weaponry to that end at the recent Avalon International Airshow, held near Melbourne in late March.
For now it appears that military leaders are prizing sensors over interceptors in what will be Australia’s future network of weapons for defending would-be targets in a conflict.
