Australia’s Bushmaster EW: Unleashing Electromagnetic Dominance in the Indo-Pacific

Discover how Australia is revolutionizing its military capabilities with the Bushmaster Electronic Warfare (EW) system under Project Land 555 Phase 6. This video dives into the $75 million AUD upgrade that transforms the iconic Bushmaster Protected Mobility Vehicle into a cutting-edge EW powerhouse. From jamming enemy communications to shielding ADF forces from electromagnetic threats, we explore the advanced electronic attack, protection, and support features that make this platform a game-changer. Learn how Raytheon Australia, Thales, and local industry partners are driving innovation, boosting the economy, and aligning with Five Eyes allies like the US and UK. We’ll compare the Bushmaster EW to regional competitors like China’s Type 05 and South Korea’s K21, showcasing its unique strengths in mobility, modularity, and coalition interoperability. Set to be fully operational by late 2025, this project not only enhances Australia’s deterrence in the Indo-Pacific but also cements its role as a leader in the electromagnetic battlespace.
