Thales is one of Australia's largest defence partners, a major provider of air traffic management systems in the Asia-Pacific region, and a growing force in the commercial sector.
Thales is one of very few companies in Australia with the expertise and infrastructure to develop and deliver complex systems that push the boundaries of technological excellence.
The company generates approximately A$1 billion in revenues annually, and has exported well over A$1.6 billion of technology based systems and products during the past 10 years.
The capabilities of Thales Australia span a wide spectrum of high technology products and services. These include command and control systems, communications and mission management systems, electronic warfare, sonar and underwater systems, transport-related and integrated ticketing technologies, training simulators, avionics, air traffic management, soldier systems, munitions and protected mobility vehicles.
Thales Australia's service provision capabilities include extensive experience in materiel logistics, through life support, logistics supply chain, training systems, and consulting services for civilian and military applications.
Thales has made a strategic investment in Australia over the past 20 years. This investment has built Thales Australia into a nationwide company with around 3,500 employees in over 35 sites.
Technology has included the development and enhancement of domestic defence capabilities such as the Bushmaster protected mobility vehicle; Austeyr rifle system; sonar systems for the Collins Class submarines; communications for the ANZAC frigates; major upgrades to Australia's guided missile frigates (FFG); construction of the Huon Class Minehunters; development of submarine launched flares and markers; and numerous other innovations.
Thales Australia has enjoyed a close working relationship with the Defence Science and Technology Organisation (DSTO) for many years, in a relationship that combines Thales's industrial strength and access to global markets with DSTO's world-leading expertise.
Thales Australia's connection to Thales internationally brings the opportunity for participation in large scale programs around the world, not only to Thales Australia, but also to local Small and Medium Enterprises partnering with the company. The global reach of the company has opened up many export markets for locally created products, systems and services including Bushmaster vehicles, air traffic control systems, munitions, sonar and mine countermeasures.
