As Trump’s radical reshaping of the US pulls into focus, so too has the list of those who have gained entry to his inner circle.

That list includes not only Australia’s richest person – but also Australia’s largest private arms supplier.

Robert Nioa isn’t yet a household name, but the weapons mogul is a close confidante to Peter Dutton, married to a Katter, as well as a fishing and hunting pal to Donald Trump Jr.

Today, special correspondent for The Saturday Paper, Jason Koutsoukis, on Robert Nioa’s arms empire and the impact he’ll have on Australian defence policy.
