Australian Defense Minister\u00a0Richard Marles\u00a0and Canadian Secretary of State (Defense Procurement) Stephen Fuhr signed the first phase of a pact to provide early warning radar coverage from the Canada-United States border into the Arctic.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat this really means is that Australia and Canada are now partners in terms of the future development of the Over-the-Horizon Radar,\u201d Marles told reporters at the Australian Parliament House in the capital Canberra.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is now a very strategic dimension to the relationship,\u201d Marles added.<\/p>\n

Fuhr said the two British Commonwealth countries, both of which are partners in the\u00a0Five Eyes\u00a0intelligence-sharing alliance that also includes the United States, Britain and New Zealand, had \u201cstood shoulder-to-shoulder for generations.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAs the world adjusts to its new strategic and economic realities, I can\u2019t think of a stronger partner to work with more than Australia,\u201d Fuhr said at a joint press conference with Marles.<\/p>\n

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney announced he\u2019d\u00a0chosen Australia\u2019s radar system\u00a0over comparable U.S. technology shortly after he came to power last year.<\/p>\n

In March, Carney became the first Canadian prime minister to\u00a0visit Australia\u00a0in 12 years.<\/p>\n

During the visit, Carney and his Australian counterpart Anthony Albanese agreed to increase cooperation on defense technologies, artificial intelligence and critical minerals.<\/p>\n

BAE Systems Australia said in a statement it will support both governments in developing the Arctic Over-the-Horizon Radar.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The Australian system, developed over 40 years, works by refracting high-frequency electromagnetic waves off the ionosphere to detect distant objects that are invisible to conventional radars because of Earth\u2019s curvature.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The deal is Australia\u2019s largest ever defense export. Australia\u2019s previous record defense export was a $700 million deal signed in 2024 to provide Germany with 100 Australian-made Boxer heavy weapon carrier vehicles.<\/p>\n
