About Us
The Australian Infantry Magazine (AIM) has been the trusted voice of the Australian soldier for more than 57 years, and its mission remains as strong and relevant today as ever.
AIM exists to provide a vital forum for the exchange and evolution of knowledge across the Infantry Corps. It brings together ideas, lessons learned, current activities, and professional insights that support the development, readiness, and identity of the Australian Infantry.
Beyond Infantry specific content, AIM also explores how developments across other Corps influence the way Infantry operates, adapts, and prepares for the future. By fostering this cross pollination of perspectives, AIM strengthens the collective understanding of the profession of arms and supports continuous improvement across the wider Army.
