  • Department of Defence - Defence Forces - Equipment Development Plan 2020-24



    Introduction
    This is a plan for the continued re-equipment of the Defence Forces. It is being funded under the
    National Development Plan – Project Ireland 2040.
    Capability is at the heart of Defence. Defence equipment is one of the most important components
    of capability. Ireland’s Defence Forces are small by many international standards, however, a
    premium has always been put on ensuring that they have available the very best equipment to deliver
    on the roles set by Government and the range of tasks required to fulfil these.
    The White Paper on Defence sets out overall Defence policy covering the roles of the Defence Forces,
    including the Reserve Defence Forces. It also sets out the plans in relation to the development and
    retention of military capabilities. The White Paper noted that capabilities are developed through
    appropriate investment in doctrine, human resources policies, regulatory reform, equipment,
    infrastructure, organisation, education and training.
    For now, everything hangs on implementation of the CoDF report.
