#AusAirForce hosted the US Air Force & their B-2 Spirit Stealth Bombers as part of a Bomber Task Force mission based out of 📍RAAF Base Amberley, Queensland.

RAAF and USAF worked closely to enhance interoperability and bolster the collective ability to support a free and open Indo-Pacific. 👏

Packing for a flight is stressful enough but imagine your carry-on weighing 12,000 kilos and 30 metres long. That’s the challenge the Technical Support Troop of C Squadron, 5th Aviation Regiment, tackled during Exercise Brahman Rebuild.

They dismantled a CH-47F Chinook helicopter, loaded it into a C-17 Globemaster III, and then rebuilt it at RAAF Base Townsville. 🚁✈️

16 maintainers and their supervisors worked tirelessly to ensure the helicopter was ready for action. Despite the complexity and tight fit, the team successfully completed the task, ensuring our medium-lift helicopters can provide crucial support wherever needed.

Keeping them on their toes 💪

Fresh off the heels of Exercise Diamond Run, #AusArmy and the New Zealand Army were re-tasked to conduct Exercise Diamond Trident.

This exercise focused on rapid deployment, interoperability and force projection. Soldiers trained to seize, open and hold an airfield.

Exercises like this one develop our ability to work together with partner militaries and help to evolve #YourADF into an integrated, focused force. 👏
