Air Power Australia Research
|
|
Air Power Australia research activities cover air power and broader
military research and analysis, especially in
the
context of a modern integrated joint national force structure.
The research
findings presented by Air Power Australia are derived from
rigorous quantitative analyses that have been peer reviewed in order to
provide a benchmark for analytical technique and debate in
Australia.
Research output is published in the Air
Power
Australia Analyses journal, parliamentary
submissions and in other
third party publications, some of which may be archived on the Air
Power Australia website.
Research Activities
Air Power Australia research activities have since its foundation been
focussed in several priority
areas:
- Australian Defence Force force structure and capability
development.
- Regional capability growth and high technology weapons
proliferation.
- Regional and Australian military strategy.
- Global military trends, especially in strategy and force
structure development.
- Evolution of basic and applied military technology.
- Reform in the Australian Department of Defence.
- Maintenance of Australia's defence industrial base.
Research Policy
Air Power Australia research is driven by these four guiding
policy principles:
- Quantitative analysis is prioritised over qualitative
analysis.
- Constraint driven methodology is employed.
- Intellectual rigour is paramount.
- Innovation is vital.
The founders of Air Power Australia believe that research which is not innovative and
intellectually
supportable is not real research.
