Conclusion and Future Perspective
This strategic partnership established between NIOA and AeroVironment is the most concrete indicator of how much the weight of unmanned and autonomous systems will increase in the Oceania defense market. Loitering munitions, which reduce the risk of manned systems on the future battlefield and provide commanders with real-time decision-making superiority, are candidates to form the backbone of the defense architecture of the Australian and New Zealand armies. In the long term, this cooperation is expected to deepen the integration of the regional defense industry and ensure that military units fully comply with the requirements of modern warfare.
