The RAAF and force multipliers / D.C. Chipman - Fairbairn, A.C.T. : Air Power Studies Centre, 1993 - 17 p. ; 30 cm. - Paper (Australia. Royal Australian Air Force. Air Power Studies Centre) ; no. 13. .

Includes bibliographical references.

Reviews modern usage of force multiplier terminology, analyses Australia's need for force multipliers and discusses force multiplier applications affecting the RAAF. The key factor which identifies a force multiplier is a commitment to improving weapon system efficiency or effectiveness. As the proportion of national resources allocated to the Australian Defence Forces will continue to be scarce the ADF must constantly strive to improve its capabilities by devloping force multipliers based on innovative concepts and high technology.
