Austrian defense spending, as with many other European nations, has seen an appreciable uptick as the crisis in continental security stemming from Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Austria is not a member of NATO, however it is an EU member, and still contributes to European security initiatives through the EU as well as other organizations like the OSCE and the UN. Being a formally neutral nation also comes with its own implications for security and defense: Austria maintains a small but well-equipped and highly professional standing army, alongside a robust system of ‘people’s militia’ reserve forces - all males aged 18-35 must complete a minimum of 6 month’s military service, or 9 months in ‘alternative public service’ for objectors. Those who have completed training are eligible to be called up again in times of national emergency.

In response to the deteriorating security environment, Austria is beginning to modernise aspects of its existing forces as well as expanding to newer capabilities, such as new medium and long-range air defense systems. It is increasing the mechanisation of its forces with additional orders of Pandur APCs, and will begin seeking a replacement for its Eurofighter combat jet fleet in the coming years, alongside other purchases such as new helicopters from Augusta Westland (Leonardo). Whilst total spending had a historic tendency to fluctuate, since 2022 Austria has seen consistent increases in defense spending, and this is anticipated to continue through until 2029, where spending peaks at $5.8 billion.
