The answer to the honourable member's question is as follows:

(1) Yes, the Australian Defence Force is in the process of converting all regular field artillery batteries to 155mm guns. This is being done under LAND 17 Phase 1 which will deliver both self-propelled and towed guns able to fire precision munitions at very long ranges, and at high rates of fire.
