Asia Pacific Defence Reporter

Asia Pacific Defence Reporter, also called APDR, is a defence magazine and news site based in Australia. It covers defence news, policy, new equipment and strategy for Australia and the wider Asia Pacific region. The site calls it Australia's longest-established defence magazine, now in its 53rd year.

The news is sorted into topics. These include Land, Air and Space, Sea, Joint Projects, Government Policy, Cyber Security, IT, Simulation and Training, Support and Industry News. Recent stories on the homepage cover subjects such as ground stations for space, flight simulators, military vehicle orders and defence exercises.

The editor is Kym Bergmann. The site says the editorial team has deep experience and access to senior policy makers in the defence establishment and industry. Besides articles, APDR runs a weekly podcast, daily news bulletins and social media channels. It also publishes a print magazine.

Readers can pick from three access levels. Tier 1 lets people read a limited set of stories at no cost. Tier 2 gives digital access from 5 dollars a month for 12 months, or 60 dollars for the first year. Tier 3 adds the print magazine, with 8 issues a year, and archived issues. The site also says that the content of Defence Review Asia has moved to APDR, because that title has closed.

The production and head office is run by Ventura Media Asia Pacific, with a postal address in Miranda, New South Wales. The contact page lists a general phone line and separate contacts for the publisher, the editor and subscriptions. The company also offers advertising to defence suppliers who want to reach the readers.
