The interviewer doesn't exist. Sir Peter does, but he never had this exchange with a member of the media.

Australian Army will receive up to 75 M1A2 SEPv3 Abrams tanks, 29 M1150 assault breacher vehicles, 17 M1074 joint assault bridge vehicles and an additional six M88A2 armoured recovery vehicles as part of the LAND 907 Phase 2 and LAND 8160 Phase 1 projects.
Chief of Army Lieutenant General Rick Burr said tanks and combat engineering vehicles were essential to Australia’s ability to contribute to a credible land combat capability integrated with joint and coalition forces.
The first vehicles will be delivered to Australia in 2024, with the projects expected to achieve initial operating capability in 2025.

Here are some images of HMAS Adelaide as the ship prepared to depart the Port of Brisbane and sail for Tonga to provide humanitarian supplies and assistance.
Adelaide is loaded with supplies, vehicles and aircraft like the three Australian Army CH-47 helicopters pictured on the flight deck.

No, the 75 M1A2 SEPv3 Abrams and 52 Abrams-based armoured engineering and support vehicles are replacements.
Are they going into storage or being used as some sort of exchange for the new A2s?
