Australia's Ghost Bat Drones: A New Era in Defense
Update: 2025-12-09
Description
Australias defense force is receiving a major boost with the acquisition of six MQ-28A Ghost Bat drones, a first-of-its-kind combat aircraft designed and manufactured in Australia. This $1.4 billion investment, along with previous funding, will transform Australias defense capabilities, providing hundreds of eyes in the sky and enhancing surveillance and combat effectiveness. The Ghost Bat, capable of firing air-to-air missiles, is set to protect crewed platforms and act as a real force multiplier. Australia aims to have at least three uncrewed aircraft for every one crewed combat jet, signaling a significant shift in their defense strategy.
