    Not so much a nation of slackers but NZ doesn't have our natural resources, they are like Japan in that they have to work to produce wealth, we can get by just digging holes to pay our bills.

    Australian Greens Senator Peter Whish-Wilson questioned the Defence Minister, Marise Payne, in Parliament about the increased cost of the MUAS. “Only two years ago in its White Paper the Government said that they would be acquiring seven drones at the cost of between $3 and $4 billion. But two years later, they’re acquiring six of these Triton drones, so one less, for $7 billion. That’s a more than a hundred per cent blowout in costs.”

    we are paying AU$1.17B per unit and the unit cost to the USAF is US$180M Northrop Grumman have only spent US$12B developing them and they aren't even fully operational Northrop Grumman MQ-4C Triton - Wikipedia We could create so many industries developing our own indigenous technology or save a packet and just buy the Chinese knockoffs like the rest of Asia

    Another dud weapons program for the RAAF, why are they flying them out of SA, I understand the politics but the only off shore threat to Australians in SA are sharks. The weird thing is these drones are more expensive than A380s Everyone in the RAAF wants to retire to a cushy job in Boeing or Lockheed Martin, defense is no longer about defense its about people's retirement plans
