@Down with the chinese communist party we aren't the best military in the world by ourselves.

To be honest these Amphibious forces lack air support , if operating as an independent force far from their main land airbases and Australia has now thought hard and long , and come to the conclusion that it is unlikely that the Canberra and Adelaide would be converted to operate the F-35b because of the significant work and money involved and the associated reduction in the ships’ amphibious potential. However the option of utilising the concept of 'cross-decking' also provides avenues for the Royal Australian Air Force and/or Royal Australian Navy to embed both support and aircrew within allied naval aviation operations to enable Australia to rapidly develop its own such capability over the course of a number of years, should the need arise for Australia to reintroduce its own fixed-wing naval aviation capabilities.or a dedicated F-35B-dedicated Canberra Class LHD , note the Australians will get up close and personal with the UK Joint strike group and will learn from that as for a cross deck from them , that would be nice if one of the LHD ships happened to be near them, note the group would visit Australia if they decide to return that way back to the UK ?
It’s a bit of a shame there’s a pommie pongo in the intro referencing “HMS” Canberra and Choules instead of HMAS Canberra and Choules. The editor obvious isn’t in service.
"Capable of putting boots on the ground anywhere in the world". He forget to mention that it would have to be unopposed though. If Australia is serious about this amphibious stuff they need ship to shore transports that are either amphibious fighting vehicles or in the least landing craft that offer small arms protection that can provide fire in direct support of the landing. Cool editing and dudes with rifles and LSWs aside this is geared towards zero resistance. ie basic security for an administrative movement. Those Tiger ARHs are a joke. Can they even be deployed yet? They should have just bought Apaches and been done with it. They should look at the best kit the USMC uses for amphibious assault and get that such as the new ACV that is replacing the AAV.
You’d think the airforce would be involved more, in a real life scenario you’d want air dominance over that airspace, without it our ships and boys would be sitting ducks, any defending nation would not make an amphibious landing easy for an invading force.

The Government now just need to get their fingers out of their collective arses and decide, then get to the men and women of our armed services the badly needed replacement for our super outdated M113's if it's the Lynx or Redback just decide already, and then get them to our people yesterday, seriously procurement takes way too long!

Great video. Nice 'unopposed' landing scenario. For the opposed landing - we are the fourth-wave after the USMC has already cleared the beach.
Finally some great clips from our ADF for the younger generations to engage with

They still have to train so train and refine with what you have
We still haven’t conducted a contested landing, every activity it’s apparently a surprise to the enemy where we land.
Ahhhh, they now looking at new landing craft lol
Amazing editing
Had 3 tiger helicopter fly over me in Townsville today, awesome sight to see!
