In a way it is a blessing - the Aust media, for whatever reason have a distaste for any defence products developed by Australians which would help our troops do their job and trash them at every conceivable opportunity yet venerate our Army and airforce troops actions overseas, whilst hammering the Navy. Sort of weird but then we are dealing with the media.

For instance as yet unverified allegations of sexual misconduct get headlines but EOS or MST successes are ignored.
