Product Description
Australian maintains a standing, permanent, professional navy. All members are volunteers - there is no conscription system in place. The primary role of the navy is forward defence - particularly of the Australian coastline - against aggressors, illegal landings and illegal exploitation of the exclusive economic zone. Australia maintains a standing navy, as part of an overall defence system, to defend the nation's democratic systems and the freedoms of the population.
