Australia's Naval Shipbuilding Enterprise: Preparing for the 21st Century

By John F. Schank, John Birkler, Mark V. Arena

To prepare for its next Defence White Paper, Australia is examining an enterprise-level naval shipbuilding plan. To support this effort, RAND researchers explore the feasibility of Australia sustaining a domestic naval shipbuilding industry compared with buying ships from foreign shipbuilders. The authors outline the complex consequences and trade-offs of both options.
