Australian company Thomas Global has secured a 15 million dollars contract with Rheinmetall as part of a major deal to deliver a new generation of combat vehicles for Australia.
The Coalition Government selected Rheinmetall to deliver 211 Boxer Combat Vehicles. The project is worth $5.2 billion and will create up to around 1000 jobs right across Australia.
Minister for Defence Industry Melissa Price says she has tasked the major Defence players with ensuring they maximise local industry content.
