Love the content, however my understanding was that the flight deck of the Canberra class was not rated for he F35. Not sure if it was the temperature rating of STOVL landings or something else. Can you clarify?

Why is it that nobody ever talks about the American carriers and CVE's that operate in the Atlantic during WWII? We only ever hear about the pacific.

They need to buy more AH64E Apache's for us to be able to feild full wings on each LHD & have Wings on land aswell. Like you said we meed more of everything incase of war.

It's actually because our armour is no longer amphibious, we need to launch them up the ski jump for beach landings.

So, it's useless in a modern theater.
They wanted to look impressive, not be impressive.
Got it.

The Canberra class deck was redesigned to integrate refuelling lines so we could cycle helicopter operations quicker. The trade off is the deck does not support fixed wing operations. The ski jump was left in because it was too expensive to remove/redesign. We can land aircraft in emergency but not operationally.

Status update re: Ukraine? Seems the news cycle has gotten bored with the war (in the US at least). Curious if you think a solution is anywhere in sight

How far is Australian military from being independently able to invade and conquer a hotly defended island, like Guidalcanal?

Can you talk about f111 vs tsr2 did we get screwed out of capable British design over pandering to the Americans? Either way still a huge fan of the pig.

If you want to have one ship available to be deployed at all times you need three. If you want to have one ship actively deployed at all times you need 4. That’s why France and the UK both make sure to have 4 SSBNs

Why doesn’t Australia get more of these for the f35

Are you sure that’s the principle for Spain? The Juan Carlos 1 is the only ship in their fleet that operates harriers and when commissioned their previous carrier was decommissioned.

the real question is did how did Canberra procurement display so much discipline to not change it...when they so often do, to their detriment

Ski jump takes less maintenance over steam or turbine catapult, system thats the U.S. on there carriers. And there more for any aircraft that use V/ToL type aircraft like harriers and F35B, and like he said in the video it’s a a multi roll warship.

Old and slightly grumpy :
When you mentioned the ghostbat or other drones we saw carboard drones that where sent to Ukraine, are there many other drones being worked on here that you know about ? I seem to remember an underwater drone that shown off last year or the year before and heard nothing about it since.
