It is good to hear an Army leader publicly explaining the need for the Infantry Fighting Vehicle capability. I hope they are not too late.

From @HLCAusArmy: “The argument should not be drones or armour. It should be DRONES AND ARMOUR.”

Absolutely. 450 IFV Enables 3000+ combat soldiers to be protected by we also need the rest of the puzzle pieces. Stronger together! https://t.co/K59Stqmb3Z

Great to hear A/HLC say up to 450 not 300 vehicles. Up to 450 Enables 3000+ combat soldiers to be protected and able to fight, move and communicate. @AnywiseAUS @DTRmag @thinkdefence @nicholadrummond pic.twitter.com/j5OKfoXSOp

📸 Brigadier Ian Langford, Acting @HLCAusArmy: "A calculation based on up to 450 IFVs means that 3050 soldiers are afforded the advantages of moving and fighting under armour, greatly improving their chances of success in combat."@austdefence #admevents pic.twitter.com/HvMCn3XgoZ

@AustralianArmy Brig Ian Langford not holding back at @austdefence Congress; Combined Arms approach importance. Drones are not the wonderful weapon they seem at first glance. They’re an enhancement. You need rock, paper AND scissors to fight and win. Brilliant speech #ADMEvents pic.twitter.com/xLnbBR2swT
