Australia is moving forward with producing 155mm ammunition at a factory in Maryborough, with production expected to start by late 2028. The factory will produce 15,000 rounds annually, specifically the M795 type. This development is part of Australia's efforts to enhance its defense capabilities.
This production capability is significant for Australia's defense industry and will enhance its military's firepower capabilities. The ability to produce ammunition domestically can also reduce reliance on foreign suppliers and enhance national security.
