5
00:00:27,414 --> 00:00:31,174

6
00:00:31,174 --> 00:00:35,734
Speaker 1: Australian Strategic Policy Institute Warren's current defense spending levels may

7
00:00:35,774 --> 00:00:40,054

Speaker 1: significant funding increases aren't expected until after twenty eight twenty nine,

16
00:01:13,254 --> 00:01:16,534
Speaker 1: and calls for urgent defense reforms to better collaborate with

17
00:01:16,614 --> 00:01:22,054
Speaker 1: industry and acquire capabilities faster. The report also recommends improved
