When SiNAB CEO Tony Landers takes the stage at the Hunter Defence Conference 2026, it will be an opportunity to share the perspective of an Australian mission systems company taking locally developed capability to international defence markets.
For SiNAB, there is something particularly meaningful about having that conversation close to home.
The Phoenix Mission System was developed in New South Wales. Today, SiNAB is working with aircraft manufacturers, operators and industry partners internationally to advance an adaptable airborne mission capability designed to operate across multiple aircraft types without aircraft modification.
That journey – from developing Australian technology to establishing relationships, partnerships and opportunities across international defence markets – provides important context for Tony’s contribution to HDC2026.
Panel discussion – Setting up a Defence Connected Board and Network
Tony will join fellow industry leaders for the panel session, Setting Up a Defence-Connected Board and Network, as part of this year’s conference theme, Building Your Defence Strategy.
The session will explore an important part of building a sustainable defence business: establishing the leadership, governance, networks and strategic foundations needed to engage meaningfully with Defence and industry.It is a subject SiNAB understands through experience.
As SiNAB has grown, Tony has deliberately surrounded the business with an Advisory Board that brings together deep Defence, aviation, operational, commercial and governance experience. Drawing on that collective expertise has provided informed challenge and strategic guidance as SiNAB has navigated Defence engagement, capability development and international growth.

The Hunter Defence Conference brings together Defence, government and industry from across Australia, making it an important opportunity to strengthen existing relationships and start new conversations.
