This week Managing Editor Katherine Ziesing covers the Submarine Institute of Australia conference, which focused on the Collins life of type extension. True to submariner form, the conference also demonstrated the art of the understatement; according to one speaker, "stuff catching on fire isn't great."
In other news, I cover the MilCIS conference in Canberra, Senior Correspondent Julian Kerr heads to Jervis Bay for Autonomous Warrior 18, DTC recognises three SA companies at its annual awards, Brigadier Cheryl Pearce becomes the second woman to lead a UN peacekeeping mission, Siemens announces a software grant to UQ, and SEA and Daronmont partner on the Future Submarine and Hunter class frigate programs.
And the house announcements: forms for this year's Top 40 Defence Contractors survey are due today, and Expressions of Interest for next year's Essington Lewis Awards are due next Friday.
Please contact Managing Editor Katherine Ziesing for Top 40 forms and Awards Coordinator Jess Havard for Essington Lewis Awards enquiries.
