HMAS Dechaineux and HMAS Waller on exercise

Royal Australian Navy (RAN) Collins Class submarines have been captured in impressive imagery, whilst exercising off the West Australian coast recently. HMAS Waller and HMAS Dechaineux have been involved in an extensive training exercise which has tested both the crew and machine.

The exercise encompassed a number of military assets including RAN Frigate HMAS Anzac, three RAN Seahawk helicopters from the Nowra-based 816 Squadron and a Royal New Zealand Air Force (RNZAF) P3 Orion. These units were taking part in order to expose all participants to a variety of challenging and complex anti-submarine warfare scenarios.
