Hanwha Defence Australia is focused on delivering best of breed Australian and global technologies to military customers, including the Australian Defence Force.
I hope they build replacements for the different variations of the M113 based on the Redback chassis sooner rather than later as the M113 is an aluminium coffin well past it's use by date. The Redback IFV fails to tick a few boxes but with a few tweaks such as an RWS with a .50 BMG or 7.62mm MG and having a 30/40mm Mk-44 dual feed main gun with an ABM capability it could be one of the best Infantry Fighting Vehicles on the market. Feel free to read my comments about the Redback IFV on Contact on RU-vid. It certainly looks like they are setting the stage for a long and fruitful partnership with Hanwha. The K9 Thunder is the best self-propelled artillery piece on the market so I am sure the rest of the vehicles will continue the legacy. 😎🇦🇺👍
Thats a lovely presentation with guitar backing for hypnosis of the ears this is the most catchy redback video I've seen it not over done with a lot of shit its just self explanatory in a short amount of time an the guitar then not being repetitive it just works as hypnosis you could watch a couple times
Hoping for a full fleet size of 500 plus. Would be a great extension of force for a change. Would recommend making some new ads for defence tho. Need more people then ever before
The Fed Gov have cut back on the contract. Now that they have ripped off every man woman and child with these useless subs, INF will now have to march even more with the diminishing of the original contract with the Redbacks. What a joke..
Hope Government has a follow on purchase of Redbacks... 129 vehicles is a start but well below the number that Defense needs.... Having our troops riding around in M113 is a bloody joke and Government should be ashamed !
As an expat and ex-Korean soldier living in Australia for more than 30 years now I'm bloody proud of being both Korean and Australian. That's 100% sure that Australia and Korea will be in a win-win partnership for everything down the track. May the bilateral relations go forever...
This is why (besides having the superior vehicle) I'm glad Hanwha won the contract; IMO, Australia and South Korea is the logical and idea defence partnership - forged in the past, strengthening the future.
Congratulations Hanwha Australia for Redback and Huntsman, I was proud of Hanwha and Australia, great work so far. Australia needs more industry like this.
I consider a system with perhaps 4 of these in conjunction with a gepard system with the same range an as these as back up because they are developing drones to take them out
Things look like they are coming along there one step at a time with it interested in the prognosis of the long term future with the factory that it's the facility that makes the machine, Henry Ford invented the vehicle production line to sell oil, there redback will just shift ammunition
I'd like to see the facility Branch out in the future with a multi purpose gepard reverse engineer mission it'd be that'd be air defence or even something that could take out a tank the point of it, for putting around the city

Australia should go the way of neutrality, spend the 50 billion per year on making the people happier and successful and tourism will flourish. Buying weapons that do nothing except sabre rattling until it's time to upgrade 20 years later is an idiots game. The politician, the lobbyist and the weapon manufacturer are the only ones getting rich. Spoken as an ex-soldier.
It reminds me of the Bradley I.F.V. You now the ones that are getting shot up by Russian drones etc...not to mention the pommy Challengers UK... Leopards..... Russians know how to build tanks and "turrets"...& weapons to destroy them. Good Luck.
Did anybody win or has the AUKUS sub deal sucked all the resources out of everything else? The Redback looks great and with Poland's megadeal with the Koreans that's the way to go.
Redback was selected however initial order size was reduced from 400 to ~140, with the funds instead going into strengthening and expanding our long range ground strike and air defence units in army. More HIMARS systems, more SAM systems and development.
