Australia has never maintained a large military or an extensive military industrial complex to support one. Most Australian military equipment through the years has come from the United Kingdom and United States. However, Australia has at times developed its own weapon systems, primarily for needs that could not be met by overseas providers. Australia has also manufactured many foreign weapons under license and provides components for overseas manufacturers.
