Today’s asymmetric national security environment, characterised by what Foreign Minister Wong recently referred to as ‘grey zone threats’, requires far more than the acquisition of neoteric naval, air, ground, and cyber weapon systems by Australia. It also necessitates a concerted effort by government, in cooperation with industry, to procure the most critical component within a precision weapon system, intelligence mission data, the foundation of which is precision intelligence.
