In a significant move towards enhanced defence cooperation, Australia and the United Kingdom have signed a new defence and security agreement that facilitates easier collaboration between their defence forces in each other's countries. The signing of the treaty on Thursday, March 21, 2024, comes at a time when both nations believe that the need to act together has never been more pressing, given the current global climate.

As part of the treaty, both countries will consult each other if they come under threat, and the agreement also adds a strategic dimension to one of Australia's oldest partnerships. The United Kingdom has committed to contributing to a submarine rotational force in Australia, as well as a Combined Intelligence Centre within Australia's Defence Intelligence Organisation.

In addition to the new defence agreement, Australia has announced its decision to join an international drone coalition to aid Ukraine's war effort. Joining forces with allies such as Britain and Latvia, Australia's contribution is aimed at helping Ukraine stay the course and resolve the conflict on its own terms.

Drones have become a vital tool in Ukraine's war against Russia, with the country relying on their massive use to compensate for a shortage of artillery shells. The Ukrainian armed forces require between 100,000 to 120,000 drones per month, making outside assistance crucial.

The drone coalition, led by Britain and Latvia, aims to deliver thousands of unmanned aerial vehicles to Ukraine. The United Kingdom has pledged £200 million to provide "the single largest package of drones given to Ukraine by any nation". Australia's specific commitment to the drone coalition is expected to be made public in the coming weeks.

The increased collaboration between Australia and the United Kingdom, as well as their involvement in the drone coalition, highlights the importance of strengthening defence ties and the growing role of drones in modern warfare.
