Description
This documentary on the ADF describes the development of Australia's Amphibious Capability, both the Royal Australian Navy (RAN) and Australian Army. In 1999 the Australian Defence Force found its amphibious capability to be badly wanting. The experience of INTERFET was a strategic sock to Canberra, which led Australia on the long road to develop a blue water amphibious capability. 20 years later, at Talisman Sabre 2019, the ADF proved that it now had the right ships, the right people and the right doctrine to project power far beyond its shores. Indeed, driven by joint development by the Royal Australian Navy and Australian Army, the ADF now possesses a world class amphibious force.
