Australia signs $2.5bn radar deal with Canada
Australia has signed a $2.5 billion defence export deal with Canada to sell its Jindalee Over-The-Horizon radar system. The agreement will enable development of an Arctic version of the long-range radar technology, which has been developed over 40 years and allows the RAAF to monitor air and sea movements across tens of thousands of square kilometres. Canada will deploy the system to conduct surveillance operations over the Arctic region.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
