Australia mulls building more Bushmasters to help Ukraine

The Albanese government is considering ordering several hundred Bushmasters to be made in Bendigo to replace those being dispatched to Ukraine as it weighs options to continue to supply arms to Kyiv for its war with Russia.

Mr Dutton, the former defence minister, blamed the Defence Department’s “bureaucratic red tape” for holding up deliveries. Ukrainian ambassador to Australia Vasyl Myroshnychenko has requested another 30 Bushmasters and 30 of the army’s Hawkei lightly armoured four-wheel drives.Bushmasters, which can carry nine infantry soldiers, have been credited with helping Ukraine gain the initiative as part of fast-moving tactics challenging Russian positions.
