Publications | Air and Space Power Centre

ASPC produces a range of publications to share thoughts, research and analysis. The collective impact is to serve to influence decision making across Air Force, Defence and potentially Federal Government.

We produce short papers and longer research papers, as well as our Air/Space blogs.

ASPC strongly supports creating pathways for all to engage in discussion on the future of air and space power, so we have tailored our products to be open to all contributors.

If you have an idea or issue you'd like to contribute, please contact us.
