Thanks for the link to that audit, TBM.
There's enough good material in there to provide a script for a tragi-comedy.

During my (civvy) working life, I'd had exposure to two Oz defence acquisition projects (1 Navy and 1 Army).
I concluded that two particular qualities Defence Contractors need to be possessed of are.. exceptional fitness and agility.
Chasing the constantly moving goalposts all over the field is tiring, frustrating and, if you're lucky, will often do little more than cover costs.

p.s. And, I might add, do nothing for your firm's reputation.
