Wow. And why would Britians military be the one to come save the day? I mean 'Merica is the one that seems to be the world police after all, and I know we've got a base or two there. Why does Australia even need a military anyway? Everything there wants to kill you.

You've got a grand total of about 2000 troops here, and the vast majority of them are desk drivers. You've got under 500 combat troops here, at a stretch, and they're not going to help us, they're stationed to protect joint projects that the US has a vested interest in. Even when the base in the NT really gets going, the vast majority of troops here will be training, not stationed troops.
England doesn't have the ability to project enough force fast enough to really be of much assistance. And the US is helpful, but we can't rely on them - we don't control the US military, and we still have to protect ourselves till any significant force can arrive.
Thanks to my short stint at Boeing, I had the pleasure of working with some of the fine chaps in the RAAF, so yes, Australia has its own stuff. Also thanks to the project I was working on back then, I know that both Australia and South Korea have the most advanced early warning aircraft systems in the world.
It isn't really just defensive. In many ways, Australia is like a mini-USA. It's simply that instead of having huge influence on the entire world, Australia's is more localised within the Asia Pacific region.
Also, since we don't have anywhere near the kind of sheer firepower the U.S. has, we're forced to be smart.
